Maybe we should append more names to Kadir's list to show that
"Y-chromosome deficiency" does not prevent doing sound theoretical
science.

Re: zborowsk <=> Therein lies part of the problem. Perhaps
CCL should
dedicate a part of their platform to related social issues such as
these. Theoretical Chemistry does not exist in a vacuum. Social
issues
do impact it, do not tell me that the contribution of women,
blacks or
other minorities (or from your vantage position that may even
include
Roma peoples too) should be ignored - for that matter, you are
also
saying that their labor could be appropriated.
Is Theoretical Chemistry to be the preserve of a small unique
privileged
group.
And BTW, for Krzysztof K. Zborowski the issue here is not "sex"
but
"gender" inequality as a representational issue.
Granted that the space should be dedicated to Theoretical
Chemistry, but
had this original commentary, which is of importance to the
community gone
without your further opposing commentary, this would not be
continuing.
Thanks!

Well,
could we talk about theoretical chemistry, not about sex....??
Please

I fully agree that this is not acceptable. I trust that the
three poeple
sponsoring this, particularly Prof. Emily Carter, who is a
member of the
Academy, have made their views known to the Academy directly.
Major
international conferences should make sure there is a
reasonable balance
between men and women as well as from all countries in the
world when
selecting speakers.

Dear Colleagues,
I am posting this message on behalf of professor Anna Krylov
-one of
the many outstanding women in theoretical chemistry-
regarding the
choice of speakers for the upcoming ICQC conference.
I would always like to think of us, scientists, as some of
the
leading figures in the fight for gender equality. I wish the
choice
of speakers for this conference was just a statistical
abnormality.
Even that would be unacceptable...
Professor Krylov's message follows below.
Best regards,
Kadir
