These findings contribute to ongoing discussions about diversity and inclusion in economics. By understanding the dynamics of gender and tone in presentations, we can foster more inclusive, supportive, and productive environments.

We trained a deep convolutional neural network to impute labels for gender, age, and tone-of-voice. This allowed us to measure tone at a high-frequency level during the recorded presentations. #MachineLearning.

Female economists are more likely to speak in a positive tone. However, they are also less likely to be spoken to in a positive tone, even by other women.

The main finding: Female economists experience different seminar dynamics with statistically different tone-of-voice being used both *by* female economists and *towards* female economists. #WomenInEconomics #AcademicBias.
