Irene is six. She still does not know what she wants to be when she grows up.
She could choose any career,
but at her age girls are starting to believe that boys are about 20% smarter than they are,
and besides, they are 40% less interested in games and activities for smart people,
even if they are equally good at them.
In secondary school, science textbooks mostly show pictures of male scientists at work.
This results in a poor performance by female students – according to one study, about 10% of the scores were lower.
These and other factors undermine girls' motivation to study science.
However, if they come into contact with female scientists,
they can regain self-confidence and motivation.
At university, Irene sees that most of her professors are men,
This affects her performance, as well as that of female students as a whole. On average, they believe their skills are 10% poorer than male students'.
When taking her first career steps,
Irene has to face the fact that her curriculum, and those of her female colleagues, are assessed 20% more negatively by the people hiring young scientists
even when they have the same achievements as their male counterparts.
Lack of stability and hostile work environments
force women out of science when they are doing their PhD studies or just after getting their Degree.
Fortunately, some research centres are doing their best to fight gender bias.
But we still have a long way to go...
As Irene makes progress in her career as a researcher, she gets closer to the so-called glass ceiling:
the higher she climbs up the ladder, the fewer women she finds around her.
Moreover, men working with her are quite sceptical of the gender gap in science
and so quite often they disagree with taking measures to fix it.
We can fight against this too, by doing further research and raising awareness,
because the more we are, the faster we will be able to break through the glass ceiling.
