Dear all,
Welcome to our inaugural FemQuant newsletter! The goal of this newsletter will be to share the happenings of FemQuant, as well as opportunities and happenings for others within the collective. Please feel free to share events, opportunities, publications, etc. that seem relevant to those in this space!
In order to submit anything to the newsletter, please do so using this form. We hope to do a newsletter monthly at the beginning of each month, so anything you submit throughout the month will be placed into the next newsletter! As always, if you have opportunities with quick turnarounds, you may always post to the email list on your own. If you have questions, you can contact the newsletter coordinator directly (Christina Pao: christina.pao@princeton.edu)!
