Women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) often don’t get the recognition they deserve. To help rectify this situation, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL)’s Women in Science and Engineering (WiSE) group helps shine light on contemporary and historical women in STEM through weekly “WiSE Wednesday.” I was Social Media Chair for WiSE for several years and one of the best parts was getting to write these pieces, which were originally published on WiSE’s website. Although I’m not in that role anymore, I continue to share the stories of female scientists on my blog.
