One month ago, on March 5, we collaborated with Arte-Fac and UCLouvain Woluwe on the exhibition Pionnières, dedicated to women in health sciences.
On our Soapbox, we have the pleasure to raise the voices of UCLouvain researchers Margo Tonnelier, Lucile Gely and Sibylle Cazorla.
We are really happy to participate in the event and for this collaboration that help bring science to the streets and bring visibility to the people behind that research. #womeninscience #womeninstem #SoapboxScience

👩🏻‍🔬 Eine, die man kennen sollte: Physikerin Clara von Simson (1897–1983). Im Jahr 1947 kam sie an die #TUBerlin und habilitierte sich dort 1951 als erste Frau in der #Physik.

🗣️ Sie kämpfte für #Gleichberechtigung und prägte die Uni auch politisch. Ein zentrales Anliegen: #Technik und humanistisches Denken vereinen.

🏅 1966 wurde sie zur Ehrensenatorin der TU Berlin ernannt.
