Women Physicists Speak Again

This report describes women physicists’ experiences in education and careers, as well as their opinions about the balance between work and family and physics as a career. Comparisons are made between women from countries with developed and developing economies. The findings are based on responses of 1,350 women physicists from more than 70 countries. The study was conducted in connection with the Second IUPAP International Conferences on Women in Physics.
