Launch Event: Visualizing Women Scientists in the APS Collections

On March 8th we celebrated the launch of a new digital resource produced by the Center for Digital Scholarship at the American Philosophical Society’s Library & Museum. The digital exhibit “Visualizing Women in Science” showcases networks, connections, and communities of women scientists in the APS collections. From brief biographies to data visualizations, “Visualizing Women in Science” demonstrates the significance of these scientists and their many accomplishments (alongside some of the barriers they overcame). Learn about what went into making this newest resource and how it connects to the forthcoming exhibition at the APS Museum, Pursuit & Persistence: 300 Years of Women in Science.

Speakers include:
David Nelson: David Ragnar Nelson is a Digital Projects Specialist at the American Philosophical Society.
Serenity Sutherland: Serenity Sutherland is Assistant Professor of Communication Studies at SUNY Oswego.
