Ken Houk of UCLA and Cynthia Friend of Harvard University are supported by the NSF Chemistry Division's Special Projects Office to organize a workshop on "Tapping the Female Talent Pool for Academic Chemistry." The workshop will (1) discuss and document the shortage of women in academic chemistry and the need for more women on chemistry faculties; (2) enable sharing among participants of proven means for attracting women into academic chemistry careers; and (3) explore new ways to draw women to chemistry faculties at major research institutions in the U.S.Chemistry departments continue to have low numbers of female faculty members despite considerable increases in recent undergraduate and doctorate chemistry degrees to women (currently about 50% and 33 %, respectively). The workshop will present evidence that research and teaching are improved when academic chemistry faculties come from a larger and more diverse talent pool. The workshop is viewed as having potentially broad impact not only within chemistry, but other disciplines as well.

NSF化学部的特殊项目办公室的支持，加州大学洛杉矶分校的肯·霍克（Ken Houk）和哈佛大学的辛西娅（Cynthia）朋友的支持，以组织“攻击女性人才库进行学术化学”的研讨会。 研讨会将（1）讨论并记录女性在学术化学方面的短缺以及更多女性在化学学院的需求； （2）使能够吸引妇女进入学术化学职业的经验参与者之间分享； （3）探索在美国化学部门的主要研究机构中吸引妇女进入化学学院的新方法，尽管最近对妇女的本科和博士学位化学学位大幅增长，但女性教职员工的数量仍然很少（目前分别为50％和33％）。 该研讨会将提供证据表明，当学术化学学院来自更大，更多样化的人才库时，研究和教学会得到改善。 该研讨会被视为不仅在化学中，而且在其他学科中都具有潜在的广泛影响。
