"Women in Science Wednesday"
Each and every day—every month, every year—women are making discoveries, breaking barriers, and changing the world through their achievements. This month, of course, we are celebrating “Women in STEM” –honoring scientists whose accomplishments are a source of inspiration, and whose work has paved the way or is paving the way for current and future innovations.
