Evidence of gender-based discrimination in particle physics research
http://aesmael.livejournal.com/ 377878.html
From Zuska|Thus Spake Zuska via Julianne|Cosmic Variance: This paper describes a statistical analysis showing clear discrimination by gender among postdoctoral researchers participating in a particle physics experiment. So far as I am aware it has not been published, nor is scheduled to be published. Nor am I capable of evaluating the rigour of the analysis, having only one mostly-forgotten class on statistics in my past (if anyone reading this can do so, that would be appreciated). Such constitutes my disclaimer.
