While social distancing, face masks, closing of “non-essential” business were all towards an effort to “flatten the curve” and lesson the immediate effect of the coronavirus, we want to help minimize and possible eliminate the sides effects of these efforts, the primary one being education or the lack of over the past few months. The next posts will provide more ways to help prevent the covid slide over the next few months before September 2020 and the new school year starts. We will offer examples, tips, resources and more.

Math and many of the sciences seem to be traditionally male dominated professions. This doesn’t mean that only men have contributed to these fields. Below is a short list of notable female mathematicians throughout history. There are many more and please let us know of an equally notable female mathematician we have missed from the list below. We will definitely update our list. Below is a brief introduction to each of these women. While each received many awards and held important positions in the academic and mathematical community, their greatest impact was that they preserved in a predominantly male discipline helping to pave the way for the next generation of female mathematicians. More can be found out about each at the given reference.
Math and many of the sciences seem to be traditionally male dominated professions. This doesn’t mean that only men have contributed to these fields. While researching female mathematicians in history, I came across more that I realized. So many so, one post is not sufficient. Below is a short list of notable female mathematicians throughout history. There are many more and another second short list of notable female mathematicians will follow. Below is a brief introduction to some of these mathematicians, in no particular order. While each received many awards and held important positions in the academic and mathematical community, their greatest impact was that they preserved in a predominantly male discipline helping to pave the way for the next generation of female mathematicians.
