sorry ladies, but harvard has spoken...
The president of Harvard University has caused a stir among academics by suggesting women have less "innate ability" at science and maths than men.
Former US Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers argued one group outperformed the other because of genetics, not just experience, the Boston Globe said.
Several guests walked out of a conference after hearing the comments.
Dr Summers said later that the shortage of senior female academics was partly because of child-minding duties.
