  3. 70% of 1st-year female students say they plan to have a career in research (both industry and academic). By their 3rd year, only 37% have that goal, compared to 59% of men.Nature and Harvard Business Review both published special issues on gender bias in 2013.
  4. 70% of 1st-year female students say they plan to have a career in research (both industry and academic). By their 3rd year, only 37% have that goal. In contrast, the desires of male students barely changes, from 61% in 1st year to 59% in 3rd year.Importantly, women who were choosing research and not choosing research did not differ on a test of scientific aptitude.Nature and Harvard Business Review both published special issues on gender bias in 2013.What makes women feel unwelcome? Well, I could talk about the conversations women will have behind closed doors about which professors to avoid as advisors, how students will judge you more harshly in course evaluations, how to navigate job negotiations and interviews to keep from being treated like a pushover, and who has dealt with sexual harassment, or worse. But, numbers also talk, and sometimes they can talk louder. What I find odd is that they are not a major point of discussion or education in most women’s graduate training in science.
  5. Subtle gender bias is the most difficult to talk about – it’s often both unconscious and unintentional.

  7. Write down the first 3 things that come to mind. Poll the room.Is there a way to prioritize them as a group quickly?
  8. Divide into small groups. Each group is assigned a particular audience, and will come up with the communication strategy for that group. <300 words, 1 infographic.
