Abordar las barreras sistémicas es crucial para crear una academia científica justa y equitativa. Esto implica comprender la opresión que enfrentan las personas transgénero y su impacto en la investigación, promoviendo la inclusión de todos los científicos.

Área de la Ciencia:

Ciencias sociales
Humanidades médicas
Estudios de la comunidad científica

Sus antecedentes:

Las barreras sistémicas afectan desproporcionadamente a las minorías sexuales y de género en el mundo académico.
La opresión contemporánea de las personas transgénero requiere un examen crítico.
La investigación existente sobre el sexo y el género está moldeada por prejuicios sociales.

Objetivo del estudio:

Para resumir el contexto de la opresión transgénero.
Analizar la influencia de esta opresión en el sexo y la investigación de género.
Proponer acciones para fomentar una academia científica inclusiva y rigurosa.

Principales métodos:

Revisión de la literatura y síntesis de las investigaciones existentes.
Análisis de factores sociopolíticos que afectan a las personas transgénero.
Desarrollo de un marco para el cambio institucional.

Principales resultados:

Comprender el contexto histórico y social de la opresión transgénero es esencial.
Las metodologías e interpretaciones actuales de la investigación pueden verse influenciadas por el sesgo.

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

Stereotype Threat and Self-fulfilling Prophecies

When we hold a stereotype about a person, we have expectations that he or she will fulfill that stereotype. A self-fulfilling prophecy is an expectation held by a person that alters his or her behavior in a way that tends to make it true. When we hold stereotypes about a person, we tend to treat the person according to our expectations. This treatment can influence the person to act according to our stereotypic expectations, thus confirming our stereotypic beliefs. Research by Rosenthal and...

The Scientific Method

The Scientific Method

Research is what makes the difference between facts and opinions. Facts are observable realities, and opinions are personal judgments, conclusions, or attitudes that may or may not be accurate. In the scientific community, facts can be established only using evidence collected through empirical research.

Transcription Factors

Transcription Factors

Tissue-specific transcription factors contribute to diverse cellular functions in mammals. For example, the gene for beta globin, a major component of hemoglobin, is present in all cells of the body. However, it is only expressed in red blood cells because the transcription factors that can bind to the promoter sequences of the beta globin gene are only expressed in these cells. Tissue-specific transcription factors also ensure that mutations in these factors may impair only the function of...

Hormonal Regulation

Hormonal Regulation

Hormones regulate a significant portion of digestion through activation of the neuroendocrine system. The neuroendocrine system of digestion contains many different hormones all with multiple functions that are both, directly and indirectly, involved in digestion.
