Hopefully this study is used to better shape policy & programs. Note that bias awareness training is bare minimum. Structural reform needed
Many scientific societies feel tackling gender equity is "a good start" but still see diversity & inclusion of #POC & URM as "next step." No

Too often, leaders think that diversity work undermines gender equity programs. This study, & MANY others, shows intersectionality matters.

Cannot tackle gender inequity separate to race as both impact one another & increase other issues for LGBTQIA, disabled, class & beyond.

Great thread. We need to be addressing this now. It can't wait. Clear evidence for highly detrimental impact of bias on URM in science

Thanks, Carly! Agree, this work is critical. Gender equity must address needs of all, esp women of colour & femmes from all backgrounds

You are so brilliant with these threads I swear, this kind of exclusion can also be seen in "well known" scientists' groups online.

Thanks Rose. It is all too common. Even "well meaning" people don't realise that saying gender equity before race is enforcing a hierarchy
