Women have made some of the most groundbreaking discoveries in science
Women haven’t always been involved in scientific research and innovation. Many rules limited the access women had to facilities, education, funding, and research opportunities. They had to force their way in, making do with what they had and persevering through overwhelming road blocks. While names such as Marie Curie and Jane Goodall have become commonplace, there are many more unrecognized women who have helped shape the field of science by overcoming these barriers. Women like Rosalind Franklin, who used x-ray technology to identify the double-helix structure of DNA. Or Ada Lovelace, a mathematician who developed the first ever computer program.
