Cross-posting:

an example of the similar community (slightly more academic) ,
where they promote the work of young researchers, from diverse disciplines.

Also a good list of possible contributors / speakers for some of our
future projects / events.

Cheers,

Dear all,

We are very excited to announce the fourth list of “/N2Women: Rising
Stars in Computer Networking and Communications/”. We received a large
number of nominations for a wide range of amazing researchers in our
field, and it was difficult to choose only 10 amazing women. We focused
on young women whose career start has already impacted research in
networking and/or communications. We also wanted a list that represented
our diversity, e.g., diversity in the area of networking/communications
and, thus, chose the list accordingly.

For 2018, in alphabetical order (by the last name), here are the 10
Rising Stars in Computer Networking and Communications!

1. Behnaz Arzani (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/people/bearzani/)
2. Leyre Azpilicueta

3. Aruna Balasubramanian (https://www.cs.stonybrook.edu/~arunab/)
4. Shehar Bano (https://sheharbano.com/)
5. Carlee Joe-Wong (https://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/cjoewong/)
6. Fotini Karinou

many people who nominated these women, will soon be available
at: http://n2women.comsoc.org/


We sincerely thank the nominators for taking out the time to submit the
nominations thereby encouraging several young women researchers to
acquire visibility. The "N2Women: Rising Stars in Computer Networking
and Communications” is an annual list. This list focuses on amazing
young women whose career start has already impacted research in
networking and/or communications.

Best,
