Program for Women in your communities. We welcome diversity of
backgrounds. For instance, we have a decent representations of Indian,
European and North American candidates but then other regions are
underrepresented like i.e. the whole América Latina.

The next step in the process is to get the mentors registered.

Which means that if you were still considering mentoring then yes, you
still have time to join us. Hurry up! The list of project ideas is
(imho) pretty impressive, and we have just started receiving more ideas
from students interested in spending the Summer with us.
