Webinar - Gender bias in academic publishing

Webinar
gender bias

by Aurelia Chaise

What? What is the influence of unconscious gender bias on academic careers? From job applications to article submissions, quick assessments made by reviewers can become career-defining for those who work in research. Blind reviewing, and other measures taken by publishers, have been put in place to mitigate its effect – often with great success.

In this webinar, you’ll learn to identify and counter unconscious gender bias. You will come away with a good understanding of academic publishers’ efforts to address it, as well as why it is still an important issue today.
