Women in STEM have been trailblazing for centuries and their achievements include writing the first computer program (Ada Lovelace), discovering the structure of penicillin (Dorothy Hodgkin) and discovering pulsars (Jocelyn Bell Burnell).

Therefore, on #AdaLovelaceDay we thought we would share this brilliant video by Ingenious Woman and postdoctoral researcher Alejandra Aranceta (@aranceta) highlighting the amazing scientific breakthroughs of some of those badass women in STEM who experimented, discovered and developed before us. The video is based on the Beyond Curie project, a design project that focuses on women in STEM, by Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya.
