I chose to do my project on women in science because I wanted to find out about who laid the groundwork for today’s female scientists. I researched and wrote about 12 scientists that helped to progress the field of science and who battled society's prejudice at the time. I believe that everyone stands an equal chance to be educated and to do whichever profession they wish, these women stand as an example to anyone who wishes to pursue a career in science that it doesn't matter what other people think and that you can do great things when you put your mind to it.
