Originally from Thessaloniki, Greece, Galini graduated Lawrence University cum laude with degrees in Biochemistry and Economics in 2020. Previously a Dartmouth GWiSE co-chair, Galini is currently the school’s co-representative. During her time at GWiSE, she hopes to strengthen the community of women in STEM and help connect her peers to resources they need through advocacy and peer support. Outside of lab, Galini is involved in the Dartmouth Graduate Student Council and in her free time enjoys the outdoors, travelling and a good book.

New England GWiSE

NE GWiSE is an alliance between GWISE groups from universities across New England. We are joining together to support and celebrate women and gender minorities in STEM fields, to increase awareness of the issues we face, and create change within our community. We support ideas and actions to increase diverse gender representation in STEM departments, create fair and positive workplace environments, increase the support and mentorship students receive, and enact equitable university and federal policies. Through advocacy, diversity, outreach efforts, and networking opportunities, as well as collective actions and supporting developing GWISE groups, NE GWiSE works to advance policies and programs across New England to promote equality and improve the experience of students. All members of the graduate community are welcome to become NE GWiSE members and attend our events.
