The Hidden and Erased Women of Science

🌟 Join us in celebrating Women's History Month with the insightful Danielle Cavender-Handley! This engaging talk will challenge traditional narratives as we explore the often-overlooked contributions of women in science. As St Albans prepares to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Francis Bacon’s passing, we’ll delve into the question: why are so many renowned scientists men, and where do the women fit into this history?

🔬 Discover the fascinating truth behind key scientific breakthroughs, including who truly uncovered the structure of DNA—hint: it wasn’t the men who won Nobel Prizes! We’ll also discuss the contributions of brilliant female mathematicians who supported iconic figures like Einstein, yet remain unrecognized.
