Welcome...
...to the websites of the Chair of Prof. Dr. Anelis Kaiser and her team. This chair is dedicated to the study of sex/gender in STEM and related fields. The working group is part of the Department of Computer Science at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Freiburg.

Together we examine the role sex/gender plays as a research variable of interest in the different fields of STEM. Combining epistemologies from gender studies with scientific and technical experimentation, we explore, for instance...
- the pitfalls and benefits of interdisciplinary research
- if women and men use technology in a different way
- sex | gender aspects and cognitive biases within coding and algorithms
- effects of gender stereotype threat in the brain
- the impact of task specifity and threshold measures in linguistic fMRI research when comparing hemispheric lateralisation in the brains of women and men
- the way research questions on sex/gender are operationalised and implemented
- how sex/gender differences are quantitatively measured in the different fields of STEM
- which scientific methods are used to show sex/gender diversity or sex/gender dissimilarities
