Women scientists in Chile
How their life stories contribute to science education
$14.000
Through the biographies of seven female researchers: Lorena Lobos (Biochemist), Brigitte Van Zundert (Molecular Biologist), Francisca Blanco (Plant Pathologist), Paula Celis (Marine Biologist), Jocelyn Dunstan (Physicist), Natalia Inostroza (Astrochemist), and Teresa Paneque (Astronomer), they review their paths, school experiences, academic training, hobbies and life projects, glimpsing where their scientific vocation and research interests are born, but also how, despite difficulties, they have faced challenges to become outstanding experts in their fields of knowledge, thus questioning traditional gender roles. Furthermore, for science educators interested in incorporating a gender perspective, a detailed analysis of the school curriculum is included.
