Professors Tavneet Suri and Esther Duflo recently participated in a fireside chat at the MIT Sloan Women’s Conference.

Weixiang Wang was a student at the University of California, Berkeley back in 2006, when he chanced upon a seminar that changed his life—a seminar later made into the film An Inconvenient Truth.

On the same day the MIT Corporation named Sally Kornbluth as the Institute’s 18th president, the long-awaited MIT Sloan Women’s Conference commenced in Cambridge.
