What people without little kids donโt understand, is that for those who do have little kids, itโs easier to schedule calls for 8:45pm than 5:30pm. Yes, having kids was our choice. But pandemic wasnโt. Maybe you can compromise so this pandemic does not crush โparents in scienceโ?

This is striking and discouraging. Yes - tenure and hiring committees need to take into account - but Universities should also do more to mitigate disproportionate impact on women's careers. The go-to explanation is improved access to child care options. What are other barriers?
Over the last 6 years, the proportion of 1st author pubs by women have slowly increased, but COVID-19 disruptions have severely and differentially impacted women. Tenure committees MUST be aware of this and take it into account in the future. h/t @drugmonkeyblog @jeremymberg
