Este año, la Real Academia de las Ciencias de Suecia anunció, por un lado, el Premio Nobel de Física ex aequo para dos investigadores de inteligencia artificial (IA), Jonh Hopfield (Universidad de Princeton) y Geoffrey E. Hinton (Universidad de Toronto) y, por el otro, el Premio Nobel de Química 2024 compartido entre David Baker (Universidad de Washington) por el diseño computacional de proteínas y, de forma conjunta, a Demis Hassabis y John Jumper (Google DeepMind) por la predicción de estructuras de proteínas.

The gender gap is visible in research topics and impacts on scientific impact Noticia

Un reciente estudio llevado a cabo por investigadores DaSCI-UGR y la Universidad de Cádiz analiza mediante IA las temáticas mayoritarias en las publicaciones científicas entre hombres y mujeres en el área de biblioteconomía y documentación. Es bien conocido en la literatura que existe una brecha de género en la producción e impacto científico, donde las mujeres tienden a recibir menos citas que sus compañeros hombres. Los resultados de este estudio revelan una relación entre las temáticas abordadas y el impacto académico alcanzado, revelando las disparidades de género en el ámbito académico.
