She is a pioneer and leader in the field of women and men in scientific and academic occupations and organizations, with work that has significant implications for science and technology policies. Her work has shaped understandings of complex issues in path-breaking ways including: 1) ways that team composition, modes of collaboration, work practices, and work climate explain publication productivity among scientists; 2) social and organizational features of departments, research groups, and advisor-advisee relationships that influence the proportions of doctoral degrees awarded to women in science and engineering; 3) relationships between family characteristics and publication productivity among women and men in academic science that go beyond being married or not married and the presence/absence of children and that address the effects of type of marriage (first or subsequent, and occupation of spouse) and type of family composition (age/stage of children); 4) patterns and predictors of work-family conflict in academic science that both vary, and converge, by gender in unexpected ways, with implications for building institutions that support strong scientific work forces; 5) types of programs--organized initiatives intended to open pathways--for undergraduate women in science that do (and do not) support attainment of women as majors in science and engineering. Education and professional historyFox received a B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in Sociology from University of Michigan. Mary Frank Fox has advised numerous boards on science and technology policy, including the NSF Human Resources Expert Committee; the NSF board for the use of Human Resource data; the NSF Advance Study Panel; the National Academy of Sciences’ studies on gender differences in careers of doctoral scientists and engineers, and on early careers of life scientists; and the Social Science Advisory of the National Center for Women and Information Technology for which she was co-chair. She was a founding associate editor of Gender & Society; and a twice elected member of Council of the American Sociological Association's Section on Science, Knowledge, and Technology, and was given an award as "Section Star." ResearchFox's research has introduced and established ways in which the participation and performance of women and men reflect and are affected by social and organizational features of science and academia. She has addressed these complex processes in a range of research encompassing education and educational programs, collaborative practices, salary rewards, publication productivity, social attributions and expectations, and academic careers—appearing in over 50 different journals, books, and collections. Her well-known and highly cited articles include "Publication Productivity Among Scientists" (1983), "Research, Teaching, and Publication Productivity: Mutuality versus Competition" (1992), "Scientific Careers: Universalism and Particularism," with J. S. Long (1995), "Women, Science, and Academia: Graduate Education and Careers" (2001), and "Gender, Family Characteristics, and Publication Productivity" (2005). Contributions to sociology of scienceFox devoted many years of her work to the sociology of science being one of the founders of the subfield of gender, science, and academia. Using Merton's (1961/1973) concept of "strategic research sites," she has argued that science and academia are "strategic research sites" for studies of gender and inequality. Both gender relations and science are hierarchichally structured. Gender hierarchy is constituted by processes where men and women are "differentially ranked and evaluated" (Fox, 2004) and science "reflects and reinforces gender stratification" (Fox, 1999, 2001, 2007). In her studies of scientific indicators, she demonstrated stratification of academia by field, gender, rank, and publication productivity. In her studies of scientific education, careers, and workplaces, she identified social and organizational characteristics of work that relate to participation, publication productivity, and performance in science and academia.
