"Frauen gewinnen absolut nichts, wenn sie in dieser Gesellschaft Mutter werden." Auch unser Ranking auf Platz 6 im #GlobalGenderGap Report sieht nur auf 1. Blick gut aus. In Kategorie »Wirtschaftliche Teilhabe + Chancen« sind wir auf Platz 88 zurückgefallen. #aufkostendermütter

I know we’re all mocking this as drivel spouted off by a privileged old white guy, but I hear the same sentiment from younger male faculty/postdocs a lot (albeit said in a slightly less odious way)

We applaud the female junior researcher who - unlike the moderator - found the right words to address the statement. Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings is now investigating the incident. We hope ETH Zürich and Joël Mesot will clarify that Wüthrich’s statement does not… 3/

Pernilla Wittung Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings As someone who watched the video and discussion, I wish he would’ve used his privilege of being part of the panel to spare the young scientist from having to be “courageous” in the first place. Keeping silent is part of the problem.

Today we remember one of the world's greatest scientists: Marie Skłodowska Curie, who died #OTD in 1934. Curie was the first person to be awarded the #NobelPrize twice and is still the only person to receive the prize in two different scientific fields.
