This web page is an archive of a talk that took place on 3/17/08 at
Harvard University. Ben Barres` talk provides case by case
evidence that essentially proves that women are just as capable as men
in science. He talks about his own experience, having been female, and
now as a male scientist and how people automatically respect his
opinion more. Ben Barres is a female to male trangender Professor of
Neurobiology, who has an unparalleled standpoint on the issue of women
and science. His talk provides evidence against the popular opinion of
some important leaders in academia. It also provides a fascinating perspective on
being transgender.
