Happy Women's Day
While I understand that the Internet, and especially social media, are probably flooding you with Women's Day messages, I don't regret that I'm adding to the deluge.
Nobelprize.org, the official website of the prestigious Nobel Prize, is celebrating Women's Day by bringing to the fore stories of female Nobel Prize laureates. While the Nobel Prize is not the sole mark of achievement, every single laureate is certainly an epitome of accomplishment and inspiration.
A few quick facts:
Distribution by field
A timeline
Distribution by country of birth
Distribution by country of residence/affiliation at the time of receiving the award
We all like to cite example of great women whenever discussing gender equality and women's contribution to society. I urge you to expand on your list of examples by visiting the website, and especially focus on the adversities that these Amazons conquered.
