This subject came up in the Nobel Minds broadcast (2022) during the conversation at 25:50, note economics Laureate Ben Bernanke’s “puzzlement” as to Why, and the audience’s response to the entire exchange.

To be honest, when I see conferences announced that have a majority of male invited speakers, I think the organisers are not trying hard enough. We have so many excellent #FemalesinMS and resources available there is really no excuse for it anymore #massspec #teammassspec #lipidomics #metabolomics

Last year, I had a paper rejected after 18 months with the @amjepi.bsky.social.

It's the first time I've had a paper rejected after being invited for revisions. And the first time I've had a paper sent out to completely new reviewers.

It stung so hard that it's taken me a year to look at again.
Every academic career is built on rejection, but we don’t show it.

CVs list publications, grants & awards, not rejected manuscripts, unfunded proposals, or failures.

But those invisible rejections shape us more than our successes ever do.

Hace casi dos décadas que Pasqual Maragall anunció que padecía alzhéimer. En una entrevista con EL PAÍS, su hija, Cristina Maragall, habla sobre su padre, pero también desmenuza la revolución científica del alzhéimer y las carencias de los cuidadores de estas personas

Cristina Maragall: “A la Administración pública le ha ido muy bien que las mujeres se hicieran cargo de los enfermos de alzhéimer”
La presidenta de la Fundación Pasqual Maragall explica que su padre, el exalcalde de Barcelona diagnosticado hace 18 años de la enfermedad, “está muy tranquilo y sigue una vida muy rutinaria”
