"Why Physics (still) Lacks Diversity," by Michael Kilburn

1920x1080 Our April21 Res

The lack of diversity in physics is a known problem, and yet efforts to change our demographics have only had minor effects during recent decades. What do we mean by “diversity”? Why is it important? Why haven’t our efforts been successful? Research from all STEM fields will be presented as we explore reasons for the lack of diversity at different academic levels, and reveal barriers that blind us to excellence.
