In our second season, we highlighted personal stories through conversations about common experience of otherness. We explored topics ranging from women in science, diversity, disability, LGBTQ identity, and undocumented status. In our upcoming third season, we will focus again on mental health, this time with attention to how identity and mental health can intersect.

Explicitly Implicit: The Science of Implicit Bias
Friday, 24 January, 2020
In this episode of the Fog at Bay, we highlight the work of a group of PhD students at Stanford who, frustrated with the increasing gender bias in their program, took it upon themselves to share the science behind implicit bias with their classmates and peers. Their workshop covered topics ranging from the biased way we assess evidence of bias to the factors that contribute to the so-called "leaky pipeline" to both traditional and out-of-the-box interventions to reduce implicit bias.The Fog at Bay borrowed slides from this journal club's summary presentation to present during the UCSF Neuroscience Program retreat, and we interviewed attendees afterwards to get their impressions.The Fog at Bay is made possible by generous support from the UCSF Vice Chancellor and Provost's Office, and by the Associated Students of the Graduate Division. Our producers are Anna Lipkin, Tara Aitken, Alison Comrie, Rhogerry Deshycka, Lay Kodama, and Ben Mansky. Music in this episode is by Jon Schor and Blue Dot Sessions.Links mentioned in this episode and the transcript of this episode can be found at www.thefogatbay.com/resources Hosted on Acast.
