description Female science and technology (S&T) workers have played an increasingly important role in scientific research in China and have made remarkable contributions to that field. Using scientific surveys and publicly available awards data, this paper examines the specific status of female S&T workers, including the workforce structure, their domestic contributions and their international influence. Our analysis reveals the problems encountered by female S&T workers in research output, working time, development opportunities and professional voice, as well as the challenges they face during pregnancy and postnatal nursing. To solve these problems, relevant government departments should introduce more effective steps, respect women's contributions, step up publicity and provide effective assurance policies to promote the long-term and in-depth development of female scientific researchers.
