WiSe (Women in Sensors)

Women in Sensors (WiSe) aims to promote globally, the presence and advancement of persons who identify as women in the technical area and professions related to sensors. It is targeted at professional women in sensing technology, from industry or academia, and will provide the opportunity to create communities to facilitate knowledge sharing and provide support through highly interactive sessions designed to foster discussion and collaboration.

WiSe @
IEEE SENSORS Conference

Each year a number of WiSe events are planned for IEEE SENSORS, including keynote speakers, panel discussions, and networking reception. It aims to highlight the excellence of female sensors researchers and bring together all researchers, scientists, industry practitioners and other like-minded people to share ideas and debate on the issues relevant to women in different sensor fields.
