Paving the Way: Canadian Women in STEM

In 2017 we highlighted eleven remarkable Canadian women who changed the fields of science, math, technology, and engineering. These women continue to influence the fields in which they worked, or currently work, and their legacies have paved the way for other women to follow. This year we will continue highlighting the achievements and legacies of Canadian women scientists in history. We hope you will enjoy learning about their lives and accomplishments, and perhaps, it will inspire you to follow in their footsteps. Every second Wednesday we will be posting another #WISELegacy.
