Welcome to the AWIS New York Women in Natural Sciences Affiliate Group

The AWIS New York Women in Natural Sciences (WINS) Chapter is an employee resource group that aims to promote and provide skills for the advancement of women in professional fields of science at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) and surrounding institutions.

AWIS Chapters extend the reach and effectiveness of our collective advocacy efforts on behalf of women in STEM. Chapters are robust, multidisciplinary communities that bring together stakeholders from a wide range of employment sectors, scientific disciplines, and career stages. Their activities can vary greatly based on the leadership and community they serve. By joining a Chapter, members have opportunities to advance their careers through professional development, mentoring, information sharing, outreach and professional networking in formal and informal social settings.

​Additional information is available about this Chapter on their website and social media pages. Membership in AWIS National is a requirement for participation in an AWIS Chapter.
