Diversity improves science. Scientists should come from diverse backgrounds, including women, black and minority ethnic and LGBT+ scientists. The diversity contribute to science in a unique way. And this needs to be celebrated. So let’s celebrate June as LGBT pride month.<\/p>\n

Dessverre er det vanskelig \u00e5 finne positive historier om LHBT+-forskere, s\u00e6rlig de som er lesbiske, bifile, transpersoner eller identifiserer seg p\u00e5 en m\u00e5te som ikke passer inn i noen av de fire bokstavene. Det finnes imidlertid noen eksempler. I anledning LHBT-studiem\u00e5neden har vi valgt ut to store forskere \u00e5 feire.<\/p>\n

Sara Josephine Baker<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hun var lege og ble den f\u00f8rste direkt\u00f8ren for New Yorks Bureau of Child Hygiene og en avgj\u00f8rende kraft innen barne- og m\u00f8drehelse i USA (1908). Baker var lesbisk, feminist og suffragettkvinne.<\/p>\n

\n

In contrast to many of her colleagues\u2019 emphasis on laboratory-based public health, Baker focused on preventive health measures and the social context of disease. Her work with poor mothers and children in the immigrant communities of New York City had a dramatic impact on maternal and child mortality rates and became a model for cities across the country as well as the United States Children\u2019s Bureau, established in 1912.

Hennes arbeid med fattigdommens innvirkning p\u00e5 spedbarns velv\u00e6re gjorde det mulig for henne \u00e5 sikre den laveste spedbarnsd\u00f8deligheten i en amerikansk by tidlig p\u00e5 1900-tallet. Dette var litt av en bragd p\u00e5 den tiden.<\/p>\n

Hun pensjonerte seg p\u00e5 midten av 1930-tallet. Etter det flyttet hun til New Jersey sammen med sin livspartner, forfatteren Ida Wylie, og en annen kvinnelig lege, Louise Pearce. De delte hus frem til Bakers d\u00f8d i 1945.<\/p>\n

Ben Barres<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Han var nevrobiolog fra Stanford og gikk dessverre bort nylig.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a scientist, he helped us to our understanding that glia are not boring supporting cells but have a critical symbiotic relationship with neurons. He was known for his great work as a neurobiologist and also for the causes he fought for. Ben Barres was openly and adamantly transgender, and was the first trans person admitted into the National Academies of Science. He was a tireless advocate for women in academia, and for his students.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Ben var en bemerkelsesverdig person. Han vil bli husket som en briljant forsker som forandret v\u00e5r forst\u00e5else av gliaceller. Men ogs\u00e5\u00a0<\/span>som en utrettelig forkjemper som alltid har fremmet rettferdighet og mangfold.\" sier Marc Tessier-Lavigne<\/a>ph.d., rektor ved Stanford University, i en pressemelding.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ben Barres skrev en kronikk som ble publisert i Nature i 2006 med tittelen Spiller kj\u00f8nn egentlig noen rolle?<\/a><\/strong> Han kritiserte flere akademikere for \u00e5 antyde at \"kvinner ikke gj\u00f8r fremskritt i vitenskapen p\u00e5 grunn av medf\u00f8dt udugelighet\". Artikkelen hans viser solide data og bevis som st\u00f8tter hans standpunkt og hans personlige erfaring.<\/span><\/h4>\n

\"30barres-articleLarge\"<\/p>\n

Han ble f\u00f8dt i 1954, men gikk over i 1997 i en alder av 43 \u00e5r. F\u00f8r det, da han studerte ved MIT, l\u00f8ste han et vanskelig matematisk problem som hadde forvirret resten av klassen, som nesten bare besto av menn. Da antydet professoren at kj\u00e6resten hans m\u00e5tte ha gjort jobben. Som doktorgradsstudent tapte han en stipendiatkonkurranse mot en mannlig kollega. Den mannlige medstudenten hadde imidlertid publisert en sjettedel av det han publiserte. Han var en Stanford-professor som nylig hadde g\u00e5tt i trans. Og han h\u00f8rte et fakultetsmedlem si: \"Ben Barres holdt et flott seminar i dag, men s\u00e5 hans arbeid er mye bedre enn s\u00f8sterens.\"<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cBy far, the main difference that I have noticed is that people who don\u2019t know I am transgendered treat me with much more respect,\u201d he wrote in Nature.<\/span> \"Jeg kan til og med fullf\u00f8re en hel setning uten \u00e5 bli avbrutt av en mann.\"<\/p>\n

LHBT-stolthet og kamp innen STEAM<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) field have a problem retaining women and racial minorities. And now, en studie <\/a>gir kvantitative bevis p\u00e5 at det samme problemet gjelder for noen seksuelle minoriteter. Men det er en vri: Menn som identifiserer seg som LHBQT (lesbiske, homofile, bifile og skeive), har lavere sannsynlighet for \u00e5 fortsette i STEM-utdanningene. Mens LHBQT-kvinner faktisk har st\u00f8rre sannsynlighet for \u00e5 fortsette i STEM enn sine heterofile jevnaldrende.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
