Brandeis GirlUp presents the 2026 “Confidence in Action: Leadership in Academia” panel, moderated by Phoebe Kazdin Schnitzer, Ph.D. Dr. Schnitzer is a Resident Scholar at the Brandeis Women’s Studies Research Center and conducts research on young women’s leadership, including experiences of self-doubt and hesitancy to take initiative.

The panel will feature Brandeis professors Jill S. Greenlee, Ph.D. (Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and Politics), Gowri Vijayakumar, Ph.D. (Sociology and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies), Aparna Baskaran, Ph.D. (Physics), and Alice Hsiaw, Ph.D. (Economics).

The discussion will explore confidence in the classroom, the panelists’ experiences as women leaders in traditionally male-dominated fields, and dismantling gender disparities as women in academia.
All are welcome—we hope to see you there!
