Description
Portrait of a Scientist aims to deconstruct stereotypes about what a scientist looks like and how they act by showcases people's multifaceted identities. Participants are asked to complete the phrase "I am a scientist and I also..." with any hobby, role, or identity that they feel comfortable sharing. The most engagement with the project, which has been running since 2021, has occurred when responses are collected during in-person particle physics conferences and meetings. This has had the added benefit of introducing participants to each other’s uniqueness, or even their similarities, that goes beyond physics. This poster will highlight some of the project’s responses, interactions, and outcomes and discuss expanding its potential future impact.
