Events

Franklin Women events are all about fostering a supportive community of women in the health and medical research ecosystem who can connect, share and learn from each other. 

From networking to skill-building, our events go beyond the technical sciences to tackle topics like having courageous conversations, building mentoring relationships, navigating career transitions, and so much more.

We know everyone’s schedules and preferences are different, so we offer a variety of formats, times, and delivery modes. Whether you’re interested in thought-provoking community events open to all, or prefer the smaller, more intimate vibe of our Members Connect meetups, there’s something for you.

We’d love to see you at an event soon! Scroll down to see what’s coming up.
