Understanding power dynamics — the way interactions are shaped by the relative power that different people have in relation to each other — is increasingly important as science becomes more global and collaborative. Through lectures, hands-on training, and case study discussion, attendees explored the nature of power dynamics in science and academia and how they can be affected by scientists’ intersecting identities. Attendees also developed skills to address the consequences of power dynamics in their own workplaces. Review the course agenda.
