in collaboration with 
Girls and science – a perfect match! Join us for an exciting day of women, science, and tech!
Take part in a full day of science and wonder! Meet scientists and try interactive activities and discover how you were meant for a career in science and tech. An incredible chance to explore the fascinating career paths of women working in different fields of science, from biology and information technology to ecology and more!
Everyone welcome! Join us for more than 30 activities!
75 minutes, via videoconference. 10am (in French) and 11:40am (in English)
Presented by Audrey Dussutour, Research Directors at France’s CNRS, world expert on blobs
What are blobs? Blobs are bizarre unicellular organisms that inhabit our forests and keep surprising us. Seemingly simple, blobs in fact have stunning abilities such as decision making, problem solving, regeneration, learning, memory, and cooperation.
Talks begin with a panel discussion with science professionals and students working at AWS or UQAM’s Faculty of Science.
Seating is limited! Reserve your spot now!
55 minutes, 1:20pm (in French)
Chloé Savard is a Montréal-based microbiologist that only discovered the world of microscopy three years ago. Trained as a musician, Chloé (aka @tardibabe - she is a fan of tardigrades!) will introduce you to a minuscule little world and tell stories about her unusual journey from music to microscopy. Using her Instagram, TikTok and YouTube channel, she transforms what the naked eye cannot see into art and teaches audiences about the fragility of these teeny-tiny organisms. A talk and a feast for the eyes!
