Why STEM (top, right)
© Chona Camille Abele. All rights reserved. Why STEM? - Why STEM? is a photo series that features women and girls in science in various stages of their studies and careers. They highlight the reasons why these wonderful women chose the field of STEM (or how STEM chose them) to hopefully serve as guideposts to other young individuals looking for signs that STEM is also for them. And most importantly, it shows that women in science come in all shapes and sizes, that we can become STEMinists at any age, and that STEM can be and should be an inclusive field.

STEMotivation pieces are created to use scientific principles - from Biology, Chemistry, Math, and even Science History - to help inspire STEMinists at the start of the week. They could be funny (or perhaps punny?), practical, or jaw-dropping, but always combines the beauty of STEM with the needed motivation for us to push through with our daily lives.
