Gender Study

A comprehensive and quantitative study of gender (in) equality in iGEM and synthetic biology. When looking at TB epidemiological facts, women and men are strikingly not affected equally. The origins of this difference are both genetic and cultural. This brought us to self-reflect on our own group and surrounding community. We used a quantitative approach: a database was gathered to depict sex ratio in teams' students and and supervisors in all iGEM teams as well as other available information (tracks, number of people…). This was statistically analysed to investigate gender in(equality) in iGEM. This approach was also applied to SB conferences and synthetic biology labs to understand the general context necessary for this study. To understand more social aspects, a survey was designed, spread and analysed.

Technology Transfer

A comprehensive and quantitative study of gender (in) equality in iGEM and synthetic biology.
