L'Huillier is the first female laureate to receive 1/3 of monetary award of the Nobel Prize in Physics (Curie, Goeppert–Mayer, Strickland and Ghez received 1/4). Physicists and physicochemists that won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry include Marie Curie, [ 9 ] Irène Joliot-Curie , daughter of Marie Curie, in 1935, [ 10 ] and Dorothy Hodgkin in ...
In February 2017, she gave a talk at Google titled "Becoming YouTube's Physics Girl". [14] In 2018, she gave a keynote at CAST 2018 and at STEMtastic.

Filmmaker Maggie Contreras' new film "Maestra" follows a cadre of female conductors with dreams of winning La Maestra, the first international conducting competition solely for women.
where is the length of the conductor, measured in metres [m], A is the cross-section area of the conductor measured in square metres [m 2], σ is the electrical conductivity measured in siemens per meter (S·m −1), and ρ is the electrical resistivity (also called specific electrical resistance) of the material, measured in ohm-metres (Ω·m ...
Mary Watson (1856–1933), one of the first two female chemistry students at the University of Oxford; Margaret Seward (1864–1929), one of the first two female chemistry students at the University of Oxford; signed the 1904 petition to the Chemical Society; Vera Bogdanovskaia (1868–1897), one of the first female Russian chemists
The electrical resistivity of a metallic conductor decreases gradually as temperature is lowered. In normal (that is, non-superconducting) conductors, such as copper or silver, this decrease is limited by impurities and other defects. Even near absolute zero, a real sample of a normal conductor shows some resistance. In a superconductor, the ...
Only 7% of Fortune 500 Europe companies are led by female CEOs, for example. That’s a worse share even than the dismal rate in the U.S., where one in 10 women hold the top job.
