Posted by on December 02, 2009 at 02:21 PM EDT
Two of this year's American Nobel winners--Elizabeth Blackburn of the University of California-San Francisco and Carol Greider of Johns Hopkins University--were featured on WAMU's Diane Rehm show today, along with Melody Barnes, director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, to talk about the importance of attracting more girls and women into science, engineering, and math school programs and careers, and to discuss policy approaches to ensure that women can stay in those careers and rise through the ranks.
The archived audio of the hour long conversation is available on the Diane Rehm Show website.
