摘要：

In the study of gender and society, science is a strategic, analytic research site-because of the hierarchical nature of gendered relations, generally, and the hierarchy of science, particularly. Academic science, especially. is crucial to, and revealing of status in science and society. This article focuses on three questions: What is the status of women in scientific careers and the role of graduate education in these careers? What are the implications for the analysis of gender? Where can we intervene, and how? In addressing these questions, the arguments concentrate on the social and organizational context of science and its relationship to gender and status.
