Women in academic scientific, engineering, and medical (SEM) fields face a myriad of systemic inequities that contribute to significant underrepresentation and disproportionate hardship, challenges amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent changes to higher education. This project will identify the impact of the pandemic on the research careers of women in SEM, including:
- Whether ongoing interventions help or harm women in academic research;
- If these interventions impact women and men differently;
- What unique challenges are women in academic research facing in light of COVID-19; and
- How these elements may impact the research careers of women in SEM.
