There was a workshop at @CERN recently: "1st Workshop on High Energy Theory and Gender". Apparently Strumia gave a talk and manages to hit every horrible idea on gender issues in STEM while demeaning his female colleagues (at CERN and everywhere else).

New info: Strumia was NOT invited but wanted to give a talk on his "biblioranking" paper and it turned into this. Slides are more mild than the actual talk
Slides aren't online anymore but of course they were downloaded. Thanks to @drc83 for the link.https://twitter.com/drc83/status/1046403613868929025?s=19 …Show this thread -

I should clarify: I was not at the workshop. I'm waiting to hear a clear account of how the talk went down from friends and colleagues who were there.
