Nell Scovell: The Man Who Loves Women Who Love Science
"I've seen many terrible examples of prejudice against women," Dr. Greengard said on the phone recently. "It's built-in and people don't even realize it. When I first announced the prize, there was an article saying I was giving money to help women in the sciences. I got 500 emails from women, each of which would make you cry. It made me realize the enormous amount of discrimination that still occurs. A lot of women are suffering more than we realize."
