Unsung Heroes in Science
Mick Richings
Science is often considered a male-dominated field. But the field is also rich with female scientists who made important discoveries. They broke boundaries and helped change the world.
Who are the greatest scientists of all time? Chances are, Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton or other big names probably come to mind — and for good reason. Those scientists made remarkable discoveries and changed how we understand the world.
But far too often, women are left off the roster, even though they’ve long made significant strides in science — including in eras when they were excluded from formal education and careers in the field of science. It was only until recently that female scientists have come out of the shadows of history.
A classic example of a female scientist not given credit was Rosalind Franklin, Watson & Crick never acknowledged her work on the understanding of DNA, it was only after her death that her work was acknowledged, but no Nobel prize!
The talk highlights how poorly women have been credited in the history, which set me on the road to showcase these women.
