- Mary Frank Fox is Dean's Distinguished Professor in the School of Public Policy at the Georgia Institute of Technology. She is a pioneer and leader in the field of women and men in scientific and academic occupations and organizations, with work that has significant implications for science and technology policies. Her work has shaped understandings of complex issues including: 1.
* ways that team composition, modes of collaboration, work practices, and work climate explain publication productivity--including exceptional performance--among scientists; 2.
* social and organizational features of departments, research groups, and advisor-advisee relationships that influence the proportions of doctoral degrees awarded to women in science and engineering; 3.
* distinguishing bibliometric features of the research specialty of women, science, and engineering, including the use of "sex" and "gender" in publications over time; 4.
* relationships between family characteristics and publication productivity among women and men in academic science that go beyond being married or not married and the presence/absence of children and that address the effects of type of marriage (first or subsequent, and occupation of spouse) and type of family composition (age/stage of children); 5.
* patterns and predictors of work-family conflict in academic science that both vary, and converge, by gender in unexpected ways, with implications for building institutions that support strong scientific work forces; 6.
* types of programs--organized initiatives intended to open pathways--for undergraduate women in science that do (and do not) support attainment of women as majors in science and engineering. (en)
