Hi all,

I'm a science journalism student at City University, London. Our class is going to make a podcast about sexism in science. My story is about Gaia Vince, a science writer who is the first woman to win the Royal Society's Winton Prize for her book. And my story is also based on the Guardian article linked here.

Could I reach any of you by phone, say in another 20-30 min, from our studio? I'm sorry for this short notice. I tried reaching different sources. None were available.

My questions would be basically:

1. Why only few women win science book prizes?
2. What to do about this?
3. Any other comments regarding this!

Thanks in advance. Eager to hear from you.

Best,
Vijay
