Ah, the yearly week of the Nobel Prize for Men has started.
These guys did great work, surely. Also lots of non-men have done great work. I've followed this in the past and been so bitterly dissappointed by the lack of anything but old white guys. We'll see if this year is better, but so far 0 for 2 awardees.

we are 0 for 4 on naming anyone who is not an old white guy. Now taking bets on how many days before non-old-white-guy appears in the awards...

Currently at 0 for 7....

"Twenty years of publishing data across many countries and disciplines show women are more likely than men to leave research."
Yep, all of the STEM Nobels went to men this year. Hmmm.... nope, nothing to see here, keep moving...
