Email This Entry

Posted by Dominic Basulto

In response to recent insensitive remarks by Harvard's Lawrence Summers about the under-representation of women in the sciences and mathematics, the New York Academy of Sciences is sponsoring a panel discussion on the theme "Women in Science: Are They Being Held Back?" tonight at 7:00. The moderator of the panel will be the former science editor of The New York Times, Cornelia Dean. (Oh, and three of the five panelists will also be women)
