As the title implies, this event is dedicated to all postdoctoral and early-career women scientists across all disciplines. Center for Gender and Science aimed to select an inspiring person who manages to develop a successful career path, during which she has to face challenges and overcome many obstacles associated, among others, with being a woman scientist who has chosen to pursue her scientific career abroad. She can thus be a role model for her colleagues who are at the very beginning of their own careers.There will be an opening word from Zsófia Csajbók, and after we will pursue in moderated debate. There will be also a space for casual networking and refreshments.To guarantee a safe space, the event will not be open to the public or audio-visually recorded.
The whole event will be in English.
Zsófia Csajbók pursued her studies in clinical and health psychology at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest before moving to Prague, where she obtained her Ph.D. in theoretical and evolutionary biology from Charles University. Her research focuses on human mate choice, mate preferences, and various aspects of romantic relationship formation and rejection, all from an evolutionary perspective. As a devoted statistical analyst, Zsófia had the chance to participate in diverse projects beyond her primary field, aiding in research on aging related cognitive decline and depressive symptoms.
Currently, she is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Humanities, Charles University, where she also leads a significant project funded by the Czech Science Foundation (GAČR). This project delves into the emotional contagion effect within romantic relationships, the longitudinal trajectories of depressive symptoms, and how parental depression affects their offspring. Beyond her academic passions, Zsófia enjoys traveling and exploring culinary arts in her leisure time.
The Faculty of Education at Masaryk University has been the subject of an equal opportunities audit in recent months, which focused on ensuring equal opportunities and planning support activities. The findings will be used to develop the MU Gender Equality Plan 2025-2028. We thank all those who participated in this initiative aimed at improving working conditions and opportunities at the faculty.
As part of MU's Gender Equality Plan (GEP), a training session focused on the issue of gender stereotypes.
