From entrepreneurs and activists to clinicians and researchers, WIRED aims to shine a light on the people who work tirelessly on the science that will benefit all of us. It's important that all of these brilliant scientists are women: There are not only fewer women in science, but women in science are also consistently underpaid and under-recognized; if they're women of color or immigrants, even more so. And it's not just the scientific community that suffers when women are not included. The science suffers as well. Without diverse scientists, we cannot expect to have diverse data. Women are not a minority, but we live in a world designed and optimized for men. Our health and lives depend on being included in the studies and research that will change the world for the betterment of all humans. Today, we bring you the final installment of our month-long series highlighting 10 incredible women at the top of their fields. —Meg Marco | Executive News Editor |
