The workshop is called “Young Female Leaders in Science” (YFLIS) and is managed by the European HFP Consulting company who modelled it for the target audience of female doctoral students, according to our requirements. The workshop takes place in an isolated place outside of the Weizmann Institute and is limited to 16 participants whose acceptance is based on scientific merit. The response we get from participants is excellent. The third workshop was held in September 2016.
