Happy birthday to 🇨🇦Canadian medical researcher & #biochemist Maud Menten (1879-1960). Not only was she an author of Michaelis-Menten equation for #enzyme kinetics, she invented the azo-dye coupling for alkaline phosphatase, 1st example of enzyme #histochemistry, still used in imaging of tissues today & she also performed the first #electrophoretic separation of blood haemoglobin in 1944!

Dr. Roberta Bondar: Canada's First Woman in Space 👩🚀🚀
In 1992, Dr. Roberta Bondar became Canada's first female astronaut in space aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery. A neurologist and researcher, Bondar conducted experiments on the effects of spaceflight on the human body. Her journey inspired many young Canadians, particularly women, to pursue careers in science and technology. 🌎 #Canada #RobertaBondar #WomenInSTEM

Are you not convinced?
Daughters can also be heroic?”
She died at 29 having achieved so much.
