Resumen

Con el objeto de evaluar la desigualdad de género en la investigación científica médica, se analizan las bases de datos institucionales de investigación de la Universidad de Valencia (2000-2018), de las facultades de ciencias de la salud (Medicina y Odontología, Farmacia, Enfermería y Fisioterapia), considerando sexo, categoría académica, edad y especialidad clínica de los investigadores/as. Los académicos son responsables de un número abrumador de proyectos y contratos de investigación, de importes mucho más elevados que los dirigidos por sus colegas mujeres. El estudio revela también segregación horizontal y una brecha salarial de género significativa, subrayando la necesidad de políticas que optimicen el talento y el trabajo de las científicas médicas españolas en beneficio de la sociedad.
