From the palaeontologist whose life’s work went up in flames to the physicist who helped pioneer radio astronomy but was forced to leave her career when she got married, Australia’s scientific history is full of women we should all know but whose stories we were never told.This National Science Week, join She Shapes History for a two-hour walking tour through Canberra’s scientific heart. We’ll visit sites like the Botanic Gardens, ANU, and CSIRO, uncovering the overlooked contributions of women in STEM whose work changed how we understand the world. You’ll meet scientists who broke ground in botany, physics, medicine, palaeontology and so much more.
Whether you work in a lab or just love a good story, this tour will give you a deeper appreciation for the women who helped shape Australia’s scientific legacy and why their stories still matter today.
