Royal Society of Chemistry says black and minority ethic chemists paid less and less likely to get research funding
Black and minority ethnic chemists face “pervasive” inequalities that restrict their access to research funding and derail their academic careers, according to a new report by the Royal Society of Chemistry.
The report found that while black students were well represented at undergraduate level, very few were able to develop academic careers, with only one black professor of chemistry out of the 575 professors working in UK universities.
