Iowa State University Associate Provost Susan Carlson will lead a discussion of the National Academy of Sciences report "Beyond Bias and Barriers" as part of the ISU Advance Program.
A free executive summary of the "Beyond Bias and Barriers" report is available at http://books.nap.edu/catalog/11741.html.

The ISU Advance Program is funded by a five-year, $3.3 million National Science Foundation grant that allows Iowa State to focus on institutional transformation in advancing the careers of women in science, technology, engineering and math, or "STEM" fields. The grant from NSF's Directorate for Social, Behavioral & Economic Sciences will fund research, development and implementation of programs that will support the recruitment, promotion and retention of women scientists at ISU.
