For Women's History Month, meet the trailblazing women who shaped the study of insects. Plus, find out how you can help the pollinators in your backyard!
Hi John,
As we celebrate Women's History Month, let's dive into the fascinating world of those who truly bug out for science—the trailblazing women of entomology. Discover how these extraordinary scientists shaped the study of insects and remind us that, sometimes, the smallest creatures make the biggest impact.
Entering a traditionally male-dominated field is no easy task, but these remarkable scientists broke barriers and awakened us to the impacts of harmful pesticides. It's inspiring to see how their commitment to science translates into significant contributions towards protecting nature. |
