What impact, if any, has feminism had on science?

In this article I want to make the provocative claim that there are some ways in which we did change science, even if, once again, not quite in the sweeping ways some of us had envisioned. To support this claim, I will list a number of shifts - all of them in biology, and all of them in obvious sympathy with feminist goals, that took place roughly contemporaneous both with the influx of women in science and the emergence of a feminist critique of science.

Gender; Science; Feminist Critique of Science
