Thanks Katie, This is good news, but it does continue the idea that the gender gap is a women's problem.
This is much too important to leave to < 20% of our editors.... but maybe these interviews will say that. I hope so. There have been >45 women in red editathons organised by Ewan and they should get a mention I reckon. I could offer you a blog on the subject?
