Women: “the challenge of their presence in chemistry”


Open Access Journal of Science
Julia Perez Arteaga

Abstract

This article addresses contributions of some female scientists and chemists who stood out for several centuries despite having an adverse and inequitable environment because of their gender. The objective is to create awareness that there are no pre-established roles in science; instead, the aim is to break down all the paradigms that are still present in our society today.
