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

I know I am biased, I read about Mats ( #Ibelin) years ago and I was touched.
I thought the movie might be hard to watch, but was actually uplifting...
I recomend it not just to people interested in #disability and #videogames, but also about social lives online
