Pioneering Women in Science You Should Know About -

Pstt, this post is all about Pioneering Women in Science You Should Know About. I’m going to keep this as a living document; updating as I discover new female pioneers in STEM.

Here’s the thing about women in science, because history is the way it is, many women in science did not go into the history books (probably because men wrote the history books for so long). Also, in the early times of life in the world, women’s education wasn’t really – how should we say – a priority. Often times, women were denied education due to their gender, class, or status in society. That still happens today.

Let’s also mix in, the “days before” expectations of women in the world. Learn how to cook, get married, have kids, stay home.

However, there were pioneers who dedicated their lives to breaking the glass ceiling. They overcame challenges to study, invent, innovate and discover.
