Es ist ein Schlag ins Gesicht von #IchbinHanna, der man vorgeworfen hat, sie würde Stellen „verstopfen“ oder sich auf ihnen „einkuscheln“, jetzt „Spitzenkräften“ ein - Zitat - „Rundum-Sorglos-Paket“ anbieten zu wollen. Wie anders als einen affront soll man das im Mittelbau denn bitte wahrnehmen?

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️ So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality? We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary #WomeninSTEM www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... 🧵 1/

Look at this interesting read on the contribution of woman authors to the new field of Developmental Mechanics (i.e. Developmental Biology) based on contributions to the first 50 yrs (1894-1944) of the journal Roux's Archives/ now Development Genes and Evolution. link.springer.com/epdf/10.1007...
