Thanks. I am feeling very good as a plasma physicist. Actually, all we need to do is spreading the fact that how well female scientists are treated in fusion area and how many charming boys in our area, then gilrs will swarm into fusion.
I attended ICOPS two years in San diego.
I have many trips in the next few months: next week, EPS in France and then I will go to Holland (FOM) in Sep and stay there till the ITPA transport workshop in Oct 5th in France, then I will also attend H-mode conference in Oxford, I will also probably visit C-MOD this fall.
will u go to any of those places? Hehe

You are indded welcome here! The lack of female plasma physicists is a big problem for the field and it seems a bit worse than for all of phjysics, which is bad anyway. In fact, when we have meetings about FF, the audience is overwhelingly male. What do you think can be done to make the idea and the field more welcoming to women?
BTW I am goign to ICOPS, not EPS so will not see you there.
