![]() ![]() There are many theories as to the continued underrepresentation of the underrepresented, however my approach is to examine careers and career decision-making in detail capturing the lived experiences of astrophysicists and scientists from related and connected disciplines such as physics, planetary science and atmospheric science. There are relatively few permanent positions in astrophysics advertised each year, but many people have long term careers by going from temporary positions to temporary positions or funded project to funded project. ![]() In the astrophysics community there is concern about their lack of diversity in almost every category race/ethnicity, gender/sex, disabilities, etc. PI Jarita Holbrook is located in Science, Technology & Innovation Studies at the University of Edinburgh.ĪSTROMOVES is a qualitative research project focused on interview based inquiry to explore the lives and careers of astrophysicists after their PhD.
