On display using the new media wall at the Center for Science and Social Science Information (Kline Biology Tower) is “Women in Science and Engineering at Yale: the evolution”.
This exhibit features over 70 women scientists currently or historically engaged at Yale. Entries include portraits, research images, and citations to notable publications. To start, a timeline is presented with significant events. This is followed by historical tables illustrating the growth of women scientists at Yale as seen by enrollments, faculty appointments, and Ph.D.s awarded. Many “first” achievements are shown.
Highlights of research contain a variety of images ranging from deep sea bivalves to arctic landscapes, a moon crater, butterfly wing eyespots, nesting fish, nanotubes, gibbons, black holes, a lead-lead collision, a dwarf galaxy, scanning electron micrographs and human facial muscles.
Come and explore the research of yesterday and today!
The exhibit will be on display until mid-September.
