This study discusses the gendered nature of the transformation of academic work, which has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. We collected empirical material in spring 2020, at the peak of the pandemic, via 28 interviews with academics in Poland. The results illustrate the far-reaching and lasting impacts of the pandemic on academia that reinforce existing gender inequalities and bring new ones. The study also reveals the invisible academic work, which is performed mostly by female faculty. This work, neither recognized nor rewarded in the course of women's academic careers, deepens the gendered organization of work in higher education institutions.

加剧不平等：COVID-19 揭示了学术工作的性别本质是什么？

本研究讨论了 COVID-19 大流行加速了学术工作转变的性别性质。我们在 2020 年春季大流行高峰期通过对波兰学者的 28 次采访收集了经验材料。结果说明了大流行对学术界的深远而持久的影响，加剧了现有的性别不平等并带来了新的不平等。该研究还揭示了主要由女性教师完成的隐形学术工作。这项工作在女性的学术生涯中既没有得到认可也没有得到奖励，它加深了高等教育机构的性别化工作组织。
