#BritishScienceWeek!

March 5-14 is #BritishScienceWeek, and Anna and I are participating by highlighting some of the ways that women in the past #SmashedStereotypes and gave meaning to the hashtag #EverydayScientist. In "Forces of Nature," we write about how women have challenged what science is and what a scientist looks like by integrating science and pushing it forward in their every day lives.

And for BBC Science Focus, we talked with Sara Rigby about women's ways of exploring and knowing nature going all the back to Antiquity.
