Cool study from @Cornell showing that gender bias in physics labs – where women work more on communication tasks and men handle equipment – is not rooted in personal preference. Turns out women like doing experiments just as much as men do. 🙌 news.cornell.edu/stories/202…

A team led by Natasha Holmes, the Ann S. Bowers Assistant Professor, set out to interview and survey physics undergraduates to see what role their preferences play in the well-documented gender...

Imagine if all of our academic institutions placed as much value on kindness, inclusivity, and integrity as they do on grants, papers, and awards. The culture will change when the reward system changes.
