The role that women in science play today is incredibly important. We have seen the struggles women have overcome to become influential leaders. From being underestimated in the male world to being looked at as only a homemaker. But we have triumphed and many women past and present have observed, experimented, and produced scientific ideas. This is an accomplishment of the female gender to be proud of and keep living the
