CHEMICAL BIOLOGY division faculty in those departments which have
specified that they are joint departments.
Biochemistry and
chemical biology are biological sciences. Congress has
recently
indicated that biological sciences no longer warrant special funds in
some situations, because females are overrepresented at the
undergraduate level in these sciences. In addition, females
are
represented in greater proportion in biological sciences than in
chemistry. Therefore, including biochemistry and chemical
biology
inflates the representation of females in chemistry.
Comparing
this table to the one directly above indicates that removing these
biological science divisions does reduce the representation of females.
