Women in Physics and Other Natural Sciences in Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan has about 30 scientific and higher education institutes in which research in physics and other natural sciences is carried out. Women make up about 30% of science researchers and are represented less in natural sciences and more in the humanities. In some institutes the share is less than 5–10%. Lack of financing caused the migration of many physicists into other fields and other countries. Uzbekistan has a deficiency of young scientists. To keep the accumulated scientific potential, to attract both women and men into physics and other natural sciences, it is necessary to improve the economic and technical conditions in science and to increase international collaboration.
