<span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif">After completing her PhD in Chemical Engineering at MIT, Anne started her career at Merck Research Laboratories, optimizing and scaling-up processes to make asthma and migraine drugs
for use in clinical trials. Later, through a combination of deliberate moves and unexpected opportunities, she gained exposure to all facets of drug and vaccine development, built strong relationships in both R&D and manufacturing, and developed skills in
project management and leadership. In 2010, she was selected to be a Global Project Team Leader for pediatric vaccines at Merck, and she later went on to lead development teams for a variety of products at Teva Pharmaceuticals, including antibodies and drug-device
combination products. Anne will talk about her career in the context of drug development in large biopharmaceutical companies and share some things she’s learned along the way, including how choosing the right roles can provide the skills and visibility that
open doors in the future. <br>
Anne came to MIT after finishing her B.S. in Chemical Engineering at the University of Virginia. She completed her PhD in 1991 and then went to work for Merck in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In more than 20 years at Merck, Anne had a wide range of roles, including
drug and vaccine process development, technology transfer, regulatory submissions, manufacturing, and project leadership. Anne then spent 3 years at Teva Pharmaceuticals, where she led project teams for drugs to treat asthma, cystic fibrosis, and diabetes.
Anne currently works at Takeda Pharmaceuticals, where she has been leading the integration of Takeda and Shire Pharmaceutical Sciences departments since Takeda’s acquisition of Shire in 2019. Anne and her husband John (also Course X PhD) live in Newton and
have two sons and a daughter, all in graduate school or college. Anne enjoys running and hiking, but her passion is rowing. During the warmer months, she can often be found navigating the Charles River in a single sculling shell.<br>

or mere flaws of the country; they are in its DNA. Indeed, the early colonizing imperatives and building blocks of white power in the “New World” – racial capitalism, patriarchal privilege, and the dehumanization of human beings – provided the economic, political,
and social foundations for the nation. The tyrannical state of affairs, set in motion before the 19th century (and still with us even today), not only compelled, but also necessitated, black people’s struggles for self-determination.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#333333">As data are increasingly mobilized in the service of global corporations, governments, and elite institutions, their unequal conditions of production, their inequitable impacts, and their asymmetrical
silences become increasingly more apparent. It is precisely this power that makes it worth asking: “Data science by whom? For whom? In whose interest? Informed by whose values?” And most importantly, “How do we begin to imagine alternatives for data’s collection,
analysis, and communication?” These are some of the questions that emerge from what Lauren Klein and <b>Catherine D’Ignazio</b> call </span><a href="https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/data-feminism"><i><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#2F5496">Data
Feminism</span></i></a><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#333333"> (MIT Press 2020). Data feminism is a way of thinking about data science and its products that is informed by the past several decades of intersectional feminist activism and critical
thought, emerging anti-oppression design frameworks, and scholarship from the fields of Critical Data Studies, Science & Technology Studies, Geography/GIS, Digital Humanities and Human Computer Interaction. An intersectional feminist lens prompts questions
about how, for instance, challenges to the male/female binary can also help challenge other binary (and empirically wrong) classification systems. It encourages us to ask how the concept of invisible labor can help to expose the gendered, racialized, and colonial
forms of labor associated with data work. And it demonstrates why the data never, ever, speak for themselves. In this talk, D’Ignazio will introduce seven principles for data feminist work: examining and challenging power, rethinking binaries and hierarchies,
considering context, embracing pluralism, making labor visible, and elevating emotion. The goal of this work is to transform scholarship into action – to operationalize feminism in order to imagine more ethical and more equitable data practices.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Feminist, queer, and trans studies scholars attending to science, technology, environment, and disability are dismantling the rubrics of gender and body at the core of our fields in order to think more critically about the material conditions of living inside
racial capitalism. For example: Donna Haraway’s cyborg troubles the distinctions between body and technology; Sylvia Wynter asks who can access categories of “man” and “human” under ongoing conditions of captivity; Kim Tallbear discusses indigenous epistemologies
that trouble hegemonic distinctions between what is and is not alive; and Jasbir Puar implicates technological warfare in imperialist projects that disable nations and bodies. Science and technology studies not only turns us toward materiality, but also offers
analytics to think through social and aesthetic phenomena: virtual, viral, cellular, toxic, and nuclear. Thinking at the interstices of machine and myth, flesh and data, and human, animal, plant, land, and spirit exposes more ways that bodies are governed,
and imagines more possibilities for minoritarian subjects to steal away from surveillance. How are science and technology working to liberate and delimit gender and sexuality? How do empiricism and imagination work together? How do we facilitate interdisciplinary
scholarship across the silos of the neoliberal campus?<b> </b></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:black;letter-spacing:.15pt;background:white">Please see our </span><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.gcws.mit.edu_gcws-2Devents-2Dlist_feminisms-2Dunbound-2Dcyborg-2Dmanifestation&d=DwMGaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=Qy_5neWa9K0ypUhGkxbia8lVqsuvyzi0W_7u8NI32MM&m=9sf8PdGGGPcMntQ6c1Ueqb9Wv0GXHQ8UtW9DV_0FkCM&s=YLDZauaADEaszR5xgjIoru7X0WPX5krS-zaCYdlQfCA&e=" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#2F5496;letter-spacing:.15pt;background:white">website</span></a><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:black;letter-spacing:.15pt;background:white"> for

us not raised to advocate for our own interests, but we sometimes pay a social cost when we assert our needs and interests. We’ll dive into what we negotiate, our beliefs around advocating for ourselves, how to mitigate others’ negative perceptions when we
assert our interests and two tools for increasing our effectiveness. You will leave with a better understanding of what is getting in your way and what to do about it. </span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#4A4A4A"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

refusing to prioritize self-serving interests at the expense of knowledge production and social justice. Rather than avoiding risky endeavors to protect one’s position and status, a brave academic uses her position, status and expertise to effectively advance
knowledge and equity, despite the risks.</span><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#717A80"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

in academe. Women of color academics have leveraged their professional positions to challenge the status quo in their scholarship, teaching, service, activism, and leadership. By presenting reflexive work from various vantage points within and outside of the
academy, contributors document the cultivation of mentoring relationships, the use of administrative roles to challenge institutional leadership, and more.</span><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#717A80"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
