#TalDíaComoHoy en 1895, nace Ángela Ruiz Robles. Esta leonesa inventó la primera propuesta de enciclopedia mecánica, precursora del libro digital. Emociona verla explicando su invento en este vídeo de la FECYT , aunque tuviera que abandonarlo por falta de financiación. #WomenInSTEM

#TalDíaComoHoy en 1905, nace Elsie MacGill. Conocida como la «reina de los huracanes», fue la primera mujer del mundo en obtener un título en ingeniería aeronáutica y fue la primera mujer en Canadá en obtener una licenciatura en ingeniería eléctrica. #WomenInSTEM

Took a tour through a new institute on our campus today. The guy: "Haha, it's so funny how 'Christian' is such a common name here, you never know if it's one of the directors, that one group leader, etc.".
Me: "So you have more Christians than women?"
... He did not reply to that.
