| Notes | 'This report describes the objectives of the \"Asking Different Questions: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Science\" project funded by the National Science Foundation, led by Sara Giordano, Sarah McCullough, and Kalindi Vora at UC Davis. The project\'s hypothesis was that \"changing research questions and research agendas will change who is in STEM and the knowledge we produce.\" Drawing on feminist pedagogies and feminist science studies, a working group focused on identifying challenges in STEM graduate training that might be addressed via feminist training, documenting how STEM scholars bring values of feminist and justice into their work, creating a community space for those interested in these objectives, and establishing shared values around feminist graduate training in STEM education. Building on this, the project developed a training program for graduate students. Themes that emerged in this work include: the importance of infrastructure and space for supporting interdisciplinary, collaborative feminist work in the sciences, relationality in teaching and learning, interdisciplinarity and collaboration, and the necessity of attending to story, narrative, and framing.\n - yorker'
