A meeting dedicated to women's contributions to the development of science will be held on Saturday, November 7th at 4:30 pm at the Museum of Physics Instruments – Scientific Playroom (Cittadella Galileiana, Largo Padre Renzo Spadoni, Pisa).
From Marie Curie to today. The growing contribution of women to the development of science
From Marie Curie, who faced constant prejudice to earn her place in the history of science, to today, when we see more and more young female researchers taking center stage in numerous scientific disciplines. Yet, not in all and still rarely in the top roles.
