And after 12 years, what percent of women with PhDs are a. still in academia and b. tenured or working in tenure-track jobs?

"While women represent just over half (52.9%) of Assistant Professors and are near parity (46.4%) among Associate Professors, they accounted for barely over a third (34.3%) of Professors in 2018." https://www.catalyst.org/research/women-in-academia/

2019: "female tenured associate professors are fewer in number now than when my colleagues and I began looking at the data in 2003." https://www.brookings.edu/blog/brown-center-chalkboard/2019/...

The Catalyst research doesn't address how many are no longer in academia, but the above cited Brookings article says, "Women experienced disproportionately high rates of leaving academia by their second or third semesters."
