Traditional roles in the family, overlap between the first years of an academic career and of motherhood, different “priorities in life”, expectations of the society. 3. Viewing the academia as a cold and competitive place. 4. (Some fields, mainly natural sciences): masculine image. 5. Stereotypical thinking, preference of the like in situations of uncertainty, lack of women in “the corridor culture”.

(slowly). - Increase awareness: gender workshop, gender guardians. - Balance committees and bodies. What can we do? 1. Postdoc. 2. Motherhood. 3. Atmosphere. 4. Masculine fields. 5. Gender bias.
