We celebrate this recognition of @CatrionaWaitt who works with @AfricanWomenSci to break down barriers and transform culture to make STEM careers a realistic goal for young women from diverse backgrounds. @MentorshipMuii @medicalwomenuk @STEMWomen @WomenScienceDay
Very proud of my colleague @CatrionaWaitt for being awarded the @BritPharmSoc equality, diversity & inclusion prize🌟. A fitting recognition as Catriona embodies equity & inclusion, both in research and in her day to day working culture. @IDIMakerere @wellcometrust #WomenInSTEM

I finally found out what this is for!
The database was created, in part, so nobody has an excuse to NOT invite a #woman scientist to their talks/panels/seminars etc.
People still say:
"Oh, but we don't know any women scientists in this field."

Dr. Lynnae Quick of @NASAGoddard wondered if these “ocean worlds” are common across the galaxy. Quick and her colleagues conducted a mathematical analysis of several dozen exoplanets and found that more than 1/4 of the sample could contain oceans. go.nasa.gov/3eeUtAE

Those days it was still under Mysore University. She went on to do her MSc in Physics, also from Central College, and was the only woman in her batch. She was awarded the Silver Medal in MSc (Physics).

This interview with @ScienceMagazine ended up being much deeper, much more transparent than I anticipated. Thank you, @k_langin, for providing a platform for me to share my heart.
