1. Introduction It´s a project about the women in science and the role that performed a the long in the history It´s a project in order to pay tribute to women because they worked hard to be as important and known as men and because was the day of the women in science The steps that we followed in order to made this project it was: First: Each one we take ten women in science and we put information about they Second: Then we look for an anecdote and a quote. Third: We come together as a group and put all the women in a joint document. Then: We add an introduction and a conclusion. Finally: We expose it to the class
Hypatia (Alexandría 350 - 415) She was an astronaut and a mathematician Anecdote: The life of Hypatia is a mistery Quote: “Regardless of our skin and skin”

Ada Lovelace (United Kingdom 1815 - 1852) She was a mathematician Anecdote: Ada was the first woman that studied computer science
Marie Curie ( Poland- France 1867 - 1934 ). She was a scientist. Anecdote: Marie Curie eat only bread, tea and butter, to finish her studies in France. Anecdote: Marie Curie won the first nobel prize in 1911 Quote: “Have no fear of perfection; you'll never reach it”. Quote “The life don't deserve worry”

Emmy Amalie Noether (Germany 1882 - 1950). She was a mathematician. Anecdote: she could not enroll in the university for being a woman three years later she enrolled in the university of Göttingen as an unregistered student.

Catherine ChamiĂŠ (Russia 1888 - 1950). She was a botanist. Anecdote: She worked in Marie Curie's laboratory as an assistant and she did not receive any money.
Alice Ball (United States 1892-1916) She was a chemist. Anecdote: There was no cure for leprosy, until Alice studied some properties of a tree oil and created an extract that could be injected with very good results. But Alice died and it was published without mentioning her
Gerty Cori (Czech Republic 1896- 1957) She was a biochemist Anecdote: She was the first woman to be accepted in the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Charles of Prague. There she met Carl and together they discovered how glucose is broken down by enzymes in the body to release energy Quote: “If we ever travel far in the universe to another planet with intelligent life, let's just make patterns in their crops and leave�
Joan Beauchamp (United Kingdom 1897 -1931) She was a zoologist. Anecdote: She became a global expert on herpetology. The London Zoo asked her to design a home for their reptiles and did a wonderful job and the crowds meet to see her work.
Barbara McClintock ( United States 1902-1992) She was a Cytogeneticist Anecdote: Studying the genome of corn, that is, observing the components of its ADN, she saw for the first time that there was a series of genetic sequences that were called transposons, her work started in 1944. This investigation served her to obtain the Nobel Prize of Medicine in 1984 Quote: “It may seem unfair to reward a person for having so much pleasure in recent years, asking the corn plant to solve specific problems and then see their answers�
Dorothy Vaughan ( United States 1910 - 2008) She was a mathematician Anecdote: When NASA bought the first IBM computer only a few people in the world knew how to use it for business and nobody for space travel and Dorothy learned the programming language and managed to run the system Quote: “You act right, you are right. That’s for certain.”
Chien - Shiung wu (China 1912 - 1997). She was a physicist. Anecdote: She went to USA to study physics and when she arrived, she met a student who showed her the laboratories.

Brenda Milner ( United Kingdom 1918) She was a neuropsychologist. Anecdote: She is considered a founder of Neuropsychology, realizing that the brain has at least two different memory systems. Quote: "You hear too much, in my opinion, about applying what you're doing into the practical world, that when you put in a research project, you should just show how it's going to spin off into practical things, and I think there is a danger, particularly in this government maybe, to be wanting to bypass that gruelling basic science part and look for a quick translation."
Katherine Johnson ( United States 1918) She was a physicist,scientist and mathematician Anecdote: Astronaut John Glenn was going to take off the Earth's orbits, said he didn't trust the computer and asked Katherine to check the calculations.

Mary Jackson (United States 1921 - 2005). She was a mathematician. Anecdote: Because she was black, she had to go to the university at night, because the university was for whites. When she presented the chance of working in the supersonic pressure tunnel, Mary volunteered and was the first African American woman to be an aerospace engineer. Quote: “Every time we have a chance to get ahead they move the finish line. Every time�
Erna Schneider ( United States 1926) She was an engineer, computer technician and a mathematician Anecdote: Erna made her own method of electronics switch
To youyou (China 1930). She is pharmacologist. Anecdote: She studied pharmacology and helped to find a treatment for malaria. She was the first to try out chemistry essays to stop malaria disease. Quote: “All she wanted was to do a good job in her job�.
