Queer in Robotics is dedicated to creating a welcoming space for queer roboticists and highlighting queer issues in the field of robotics. Our mission is to foster awareness of LGBTQ+ topics in robotics, cultivate a dynamic community of LGBTQ+ researchers, and highlight the contributions of LGBTQ+ roboticists.

We recently had the opportunity to write about our efforts in the IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine. Thank you to the IEEE-RAS Women in Engineering organizing committee for their support in this publication! Read the full article here.
We recently set up a Redbubble storefront so that you can buy merchandise if you can't make it to a conference event. You can pick a design, then add it to different products (tote bag, pin, magnet, sticker, apparel, etc.) Please let us know if you have any issues with this interface!
