HARRISBURG, Pa. — Neuroscientist and actor Mayim Bialik was at Penn State Harrisburg on March 30 to speak at the University's "Women in Steam," virtual symposium. 

Bialik spoke about her love of science and acting being intertwined, careers in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics), and the challenges women face in those fields.

"There are a lot of challenges to being a woman in the sciences both because we aren't typically equally represented, meaning our classes tend to skew male so there is a variety of challenges with that, and it also depends how sensitive you are to being in the minority that way," she said.
