International Day of Women and Girls in Science

UN Women and Girls In Science Day

 

Today is a day to recognize the achievements of women and girls in science, those that have achieved and those that will achieve.  I am reminded of a TED Women talk given in 2017 by Anushka Naiknaware, who at the age of 13,  was the youngest winner of the Google Science Fair, with her invention of a clever new bandage that tells caregivers when it needs to be changed.  Astounding.
