Women in Science

I think that this presentation for women in science was interesting and more eye opening for me at the same time. I liked learning about the various contributions that different women made in England and France. Elise Widdowson was a particular one  that stood out to me because I like food and hearing about how she self experimented by only eating cabbage and potatoes was very interesting to me. I really like those type of involved experiments. I really do respect the barriers that these women broke in science but I really would have liked to see more scientists who are women of color, especially black women because in the STEM field especially, they are very overlooked. I just think more representation matters and it helps for other minorities to see that as well.

  1. It would be great for you to research women of color, Kadejah, and see what you can come up with for your project on paradigm shifts. Of course, there may be other topics you have interest in, but that one would be interesting.
