Lehigh ADVANCE was contacted by University Media Relations following a request by Kelsey Cruz to interview men STEM faculty who could comment on increasing representation of women in science. Dr. Hank Korth participated in a phone interview, and the work of Lehigh ADVANCE, the National Science Foundation ADVANCE program, and the ongoing efforts of other organizations and institutions are featured prominently in the final news story.
Research suggests women may be drawn more to collaborative and interdisciplinary research. Lehigh ADVANCE will shed light on to what extent and how interdisciplinary work is gendered, not only in terms of participation but in terms of outcomes.
