ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Margaret W. Rossiter

Margaret W. Rossiter is a lady who is very interested in learning about women and their contributions to science. She thinks it's important to recognize the very important work that women have done in the past and to give them the credit they deserve.

Sometimes, people forget to write about women in science. They focus only on the men who have contributed. But Margaret wants to change that. She studies the history of science and works hard to find out about all the special women who have done great things in science.

Margaret has written many books about these women and their work. She hopes that by learning about them, we can inspire more girls and women to become scientists and make important discoveries too. Margaret is very passionate about raising awareness about women's contributions to science and wants everyone to know how awesome women scientists are!
