Londa Schiebinger Lecture (November 27, 2023)

2024年4月1日更新

Gendered Innovations: Enhancing Excellence in Science and Technology

posterflyerProfessor Londa Schiebinger, an advocate of gendered innovations, will discuss the potential for new discoveries and innovations by incorporating sex, gender and intersectional perspectives into scientific and technological research. There is a growing awareness of the importance of gendered innovations not only in the health and medical fields but also in engineering fields such as robotics and computer science. Learning about the latest case studies and relevant policies in each country will provide clues for the future development of gender innovations in Japan. We look forward to your participation in this cutting-edge discussion on gender innovations. Professor Schiebinger will be visiting Japan for this event, and we look forward to seeing you at the Ochanomizu University Auditorium.

Title and abstract

Gendered Innovations: Enhancing Excellence in Science and Technology
How can we harness the creative power of sex, gender, and intersectional analysis for discovery and innovations? This talk will explore what gendered innovations is, how it works, its methods, and case studies. As time allows, we will take case studies from health & biomedicine, machine learning/artificial intelligence, robotics, climate change, and computer science curriculum. We will also discuss policy initiatives at funding agencies, peer-reviewed journals, such as Nature, and universities and research institutions. To match the global reach of science and technology, Gendered Innovations was developed through a collaboration of over 220 experts from across the United States, Europe, Canada, and Asia. Major funders include the European Commission, the U.S. National Science Foundation, and Stanford University. Participants may wish to read: Sex, Gender Analysis Improves Science and Engineering Nature (2019); Science (2022); Gendered Innovations 2: How Inclusive Analysis Contributes to Research and Innovation (Luxembourg: Publications Office of the European Union, 2020), Ensuring that Biomedical AI Benefits Diverse Populations eBioMedicine (2021), and A Framework for Sex, Gender, and Diversity Analysis in Research Science (2022).
