Collaboration penalizes academic women

Here is some disturbing research on how women get penalized when they collaborate. Here is an excerpt: “Unfortunately for women, research done with a co-author counts far less. When women write with co-authors, the benefit to their career prospects is much less than half that accorded to men. This really matters, because most economic research is done with co-authors.” http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/10/upshot/when-teamwork-doesnt-work-for-women.html
