The Millicent (Mimi) E. Goldschmidt quarterly seminar series, hosted by the Rice University-Texas Medical Center chapter of Sigma Xi, is meant to provide an opportunity for newly appointed assistant professors at institutions in the Texas Medical Center (TMC) to share their research journey. Dr. Goldschmidt, a professor emerita in the Department of Diagnostic and Biomedical Sciences in the School of Dentistry at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, spent her life and career mentoring and advocating for women in STEM, even in the days that “it wasn’t very popular to be a woman, a scientist, and a mother.” This seminar series was established to honor Mimi’s contributions to science and to women in STEM by highlighting the both the accomplishments of the next generation of investigators and their unique path to starting their scientific career in the TMC.
