Funding Information: Numerous national organizations have been created to attempt to address the needs of women in science at all levels. For example, the Association for Women in Science (available from: http://www.awis.org/ ) is the major multidisciplinary organization for women in Science Technology, Engineering, and Medicine (STEM) across all employment sectors. Also, the Scientista Foundation is a large network of college and graduate women innovating in STEM. Scientista works with student leaders to increase the number of women studying and pursuing careers in STEM. Another organization, the Science Club for Girls (available from: scienceclubforgirls.org ), pairs high school and middle school girls with female mentor-scientists through free science and engineering programs. Such organizations are outstanding seeds of change and help to facilitate much needed mentorship and inspiration among women in science. The ADVANCE programs sponsored by the National Science Foundation have worked at innovative strategies to transform institutions engaged in STEM research to women-friendly work places (available from: http://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/advance/index.jsp ). Such models and their strategies greatly benefit GI scientists, and the ADVANCE websites have much useful information that we encourage readers to explore.
