Gender inequality in Science

from Naturally Speaking · host University of Glasgow

Episode 16. This latest episode of the Naturally Speaking podcast explores the increasingly prominent issue of gender inequality in science and engineering. With the help of four Institute researchers: Prof. Dan Haydon, Dr Michelle Bellingham, Dr Winnie Boner and Dr Richard Orton, we first explore the evidence for women being underrepresented in scientific research and why this bias exists. Then, we discuss the Athena Swan Charter and the action we can take to reverse this bias and promote more diverse working environments. The Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health and Comparative Medicine recently obtained an Athena Swan Bronze Award for its commitment to addressing gender inequalities.
