Today, women are actively participating in science, while the number of women among the world's top scientists is growing. In fact, the face of modern science would be unrecognisable without the major contributions made by women. Women still face a lot of obstacles in science which can be summed up using metaphors such as the glass ceiling, the sticky floor and the glass cliff. The role of women in research excellence is still an issue, as well as their low numbers in top positions. That is why policy changes are needed to tap women's talents and resources to the full. For much of history, women were officially excluded from the scientific realm. Moreover, they often encountered loving parents who tried to discourage their passions for 'unfeminine subjects' such as geology or mathematics. |
