Understanding and Reducing Gender Bias in STEM

Speaker

Despite efforts to recruit and retain more women, a stark gender disparity remains within STEM fields. Dr. Moss-Racusin will present experimental evidence of gender bias within STEM, its direct consequences for women’s STEM engagement, and discuss innovative interventions aimed at increasing the representation of women. Throughout, she will highlight implications for academic meritocracy, diversity, and gender parity across STEM fields.
