dc.descriptionScience is fraught with gender inequities that depress women’s professional careers and invade their personal space, as well (Tri-national Conference (2003); Commission on Professionals in Science and Technology, 2004; Rosser, 2004). For example, female PhD students in the U.S. are often excluded from the informal social groupings that advance professional socialization (Etzkowitz, Kemelgor and Uzzi, 2000). Not too long ago, a party celebrating the completion of the PhD by a female scientist in Brazil was interrupted by word that her husband was filing for divorce, apparently unable to countenance her rise in status symbolized by attainment of an advanced degree. A “gender tax” in evaluation of scientific work has been identified in experiments that assign the same paper to male and female authors.en-US
dc.descriptionLa ciencia está cargada de inequidades que presionan la carrera professional de la mujer e invade su espacio personal (Tri-national Conference (2003); Commission on Professionals in Science and Technology, 2004; Rosser, 2004). Por ejemplo, las estudiantes de doctorado de los Estados Unidos son usualmente excluidas de los grupos informales sociales que buscan la socialización profesional (Etzkowitz, Kemelgor and Uzzi, 2000). Hace no mucho, una fiesta de celebración de finalización de doctorado de una estudiante Brasilera fue interrupida debido a que su marido le solicitó el divorcio, aparentemente por la impotencia sentida que su mujer ascendiera en estatus simbolizado por su avance de grado académico. Un “impuesto de género” en la evaluación del trabajo científico ha sido identificado en experimentos que asignan el mismo papel a autores hombres y mujeres.es-ES
