This year’s Fred Jevons lecture will be given by Dr. Cassidy R. Sugimoto, Professor and Tom and Marie Patton School Chair in the School of Public Policy at Georgia Institute of Technology.
The gender gap in science and technology is narrowing, but at a decidedly unimpressive pace. And even if parity is achievable, what about equity?
In her lecture, Dr Sugimoto will explore this gender gap, and what can be done to address it.
The Fred Jevons lecture is jointly organised by the Manchester Institute of Innovation Research at Alliance Manchester Business School and the University of Manchester’s Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine in honour of the founding Professor of ‘Liberal Studies in Science’ at Manchester.

There will be welcome refreshments served at Alliance MBS from 4;15pm before the lecture begins at 5:00pm
