    ABSTRACT NIX, ANISHA MAHESH. Investigating the Links Among Stereotypes, Self-Image, and Career Commitment to the Sciences. (Under the direction of Mary B. Wyer). Women have historically been underrepresented in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. One reason for this continued underrepresentation might be existing stereotypes of STEM fields, as well as the lack of historical role models within these fields. A longitudinal analysis conducted over a one- semester period in an introductory Chemistry course was conducted to explore the effects of a curriculum intervention that introduced the contributions of women to chemistry on students’ stereotypes about STEM fields, self perceptions, and their commitment to STEM fields. Results indicate that stereotypes about scientists in this sample include masculine, feminine, and neutral characteristics and that there was some change in stereotypes after the intervention. Furthermore, women in the sample had higher career commitment to the sciences than men and women who were STEM majors had a better fit between stereotypes and self perceptions than did women who were not STEM majors.

  • Curriculum Vitae Prof. Dr. John Franklin Enders
    Curriculum Vitae Prof. Dr. John Franklin Enders Name: John Franklin Enders Lebensdaten: 10. Februar 1897 ‐ 8. September 1985 John F. Enders war ein amerikanischer Virologe und Bakteriologe. Er war maßgeblich an der Erfor‐ schung und Entwicklung moderner Impfstoffe beteiligt. Gemeinsam mit Frederick Chapman Robbins und Thomas Huckle Weller entdeckte er die Fähigkeit des Poliovirus, in Kulturen verschiedener Ge‐ webstypen zu wachsen. Damit wurde es erstmals möglich, einen wirksamen Impfstoff gegen Kinder‐ lähmung herzustellen. Für diese Leistung wurden Enders und seine beiden Kollegen 1954 mit dem Nobelpreis für Physiologie oder Medizin ausgezeichnet. Werdegang John Enders‘ Ausbildungsweg war lang und kurvenreich: Er begann 1915 ein Studium an der Yale University, das er wegen des Ersten Weltkriegs unterbrechen musste, um als Pilot in der US‐ Luftwaffe zu dienen. 1920 schloss er sein Studium mit dem akademischen Grad eines Bachelors ab. Im Anschluss arbeitete er als Grundstücksmakler. Eine Tätigkeit, die ihn ebenso wenig befriedigte wie ein später angeschlossenes Literatur‐ und Sprachenstudium, mit dem er eigentlich eine Laufbahn als Englischlehrer angestrebt hatte. Schließlich nahm er in Yale ein Studium der Bakteriologie und Im‐ munologie auf, das er 1930 mit der Dissertation abschloss. Im Anschluss war er bis 1946 an der Yale University tätig. Neben seinen Forschungen an Mykobakterien widmete er sich der Erforschung der Pneumokokken. Seine erste Arbeit auf dem Gebiet der Virologie erschien 1939. Danach befasste er sich fast aus‐ schließlich mit Viren und untersuchte unter anderem den Wert der Gewebekulturtechnik für die Virenvermehrung. Ein wesentlicher Erfolg gelang ihm auf dem Gebiet der serologischen Technik zum Nachweis von Antikörpern des Mumpsvirus. Dazu verwendete er erstmalig ein Anti‐Gen aus infizier‐ tem Parotisgewebe von infizierten Affen.

    PROCEEDINGS OF THE NOBEL PRIZE SEMINAR 2012 (NPS 2012) 0 Organized by School of Chemistry Editor: Dr. Nabakrushna Behera Lecturer, School of Chemistry, S.U. (E-mail: [email protected]) 24 August 2013 Seminar Held Sambalpur University Jyoti Vihar-768 019 Odisha Organizing Secretary: Dr. N. K. Behera, School of Chemistry, S.U., Jyoti Vihar, 768 019, Odisha. Dr. S. C. Jamir Governor, Odisha Raj Bhawan Bhubaneswar-751 008 August 13, 2013 EMSSSEM I am glad to know that the School of Chemistry, Sambalpur University, like previous years is organizing a Seminar on "Nobel Prize" on August 24, 2013. The Nobel Prize instituted on the lines of its mentor and founder Alfred Nobel's last will to establish a series of prizes for those who confer the “greatest benefit on mankind’ is widely regarded as the most coveted international award given in recognition to excellent work done in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace. The Prize since its introduction in 1901 has a very impressive list of winners and each of them has their own story of success. It is heartening that a seminar is being organized annually focusing on the Nobel Prize winning work of the Nobel laureates of that particular year. The initiative is indeed laudable as it will help teachers as well as students a lot in knowing more about the works of illustrious recipients and drawing inspiration to excel and work for the betterment of mankind. I am sure the proceeding to be brought out on the occasion will be highly enlightening.
