The 30 odd speakers for the

International Conference "Trends in Microscopy 2014" March 27th -29th in Freiburg/Germany

Includes not even a single women.

Is this a record ?

Statistically women are squeezed out from the hierarchy of science and male only speaker lists are clearly part of the problem.
