This  week Aimie and Sam talk about some amazing women in STEM that we call our heroes/heroines, Dr Alice Lee and Professor Gerty Cori. Two phenomenal women that altered the way in which science is recognised today. We also talk a little more about the impact of more women in STEM and what the future holds for women in academia as a whole.
