To celebrate International Women's Day, we would like to introduce you to some amazing female scientists.
Marie Curie - the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win twice, the only person to win twice in multiple sciences.
Rosalind Franklin - chemist and X-ray crystallographer who made contributions to the understanding of the molecular structures of DNA, RNA, viruses, coal, and graphite. Although her works on coal and viruses were appreciated in her lifetime, her contributions to the discovery of DNA were largely recognized posthumously.
Roberta Bondar - Canada's first female astronaut and the first neurologist in space.
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin - biochemist who developed protein crystallography, for which she won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1964.
