The Foundation is supporting the Advancing Graduate Leadership Conference in Physics program that aims to expand networking, provide professional development, and support women and gender minority graduate- and post-doctorate students in seeking leadership roles in physics.

The conference is organized run by the American Physical Society, a nonprofit membership organization working to advance the knowledge of physics.

The funding is part of the Foundation’s effort to create a more inclusive, robust, and innovative physics and astronomy community in U.S. universities and research bodies.
