Abstract: A cademic researchers who identify as women have made gains in representation versus men in the last two decades-but gender disparities persist when researchers drill down on gains by field, career stage, and research impact, among other factors.A large-scale study conducted by Elsevier found that the global prevalence of women researchers increased by 12% from 2000 to 2022 (30% to 42%) overall.Elsevier put together a dashboard that users can toggle to look at gains and gaps in various fields, using records from about 20 million researchers from Scopus, using an artificial intelligence algorithm to infer gender.(Scopus is a citation-database of peer-reviewed literature that includes scientific journals, books, and conference presentations.)Read on for more of the findings of the study.
