Gendered Innovations in Science, Medicine, and Engineering Project Director
Stanford University research center facilitates innovation through application of gendered analytic methods
Gendered Innovations employ sex and gender analysis as a resource to create new knowledge and technology. The project presents illustrative case studies from from science, health and medicine, engineering, and environmental sciences. The case studies highlight the innovative potential of gendered analysis.
The peer-reviewed Gendered Innovations project:
- develops practical methods of sex and gender analysis for scientists and engineers;
- provides case studies as concrete illustrations of how sex and gender analysis leads to innovation.
The project illustrates how ignoring gender in scientific analysis inhibits understanding and how innovation and insight occur when gender and gendered analysis are explicitly part of the scientific endeavor.
The Project illustrates this through specific case studies from science, health and medicine, engineering, and environmental sciences.
