Howard Florey Institute

The Equality Committee at the Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health will be holding an edit-a-thon on Friday 6 November 2014.

The edit-a-thon will focus on enlarging content on Australian female neuroscientists who have a limited presence online.

The aim is to publicly acknowledge the work of women in neuroscience, as well as inspiring the next generation of neuroscientists.

The event will be held at the Florey Institute in Parkville, Melbourne. Participants will be invited within the neuroscience community.

This event will be supported by Wikimedia Australia, specifically by User:Steven Zhang and User:Bduke.
