HYPATIA DE ALEXANDRIA, A PRIMEIRA MULHER CIENTISTA DO MUNDO

Nasceu em Alexandria, cidade cultural da região que hoje corresponde ao Egito, 355 d.C. Era filha

de Theon, professor, era também famoso filósofo, astrônomo e matemático

Mulheres, um breve olhar sobre a questão de gênero desde as

civilizações antigas

"O pior adorno que uma

mulher pode querer usar

é ser sábia” Lutero

(teólogo Alemão, século

XVI,)

"A natureza só faz

mulheres quando não

pode fazer homens. A

mulher é, portanto, um

homem inferior."

Aristóteles (filósofo, guia

intelectual e preceptor

grego de Alexandre, o

Grande, século IV A.C.)

Mulheres, um longo Caminho de Preconceitos e Humilhações

”Mulheres, escravos e

forasteiros não são

cidadãos” (Péricles

(político ateniense destaca

do, século V aC)

“Que as mulheres

continuem caladas nas

igrejas. Se elas quiserem

ser educadas, devem

discutir com seus maridos

em suas casas“ (Apóstolo

Paulo, ano 67 dC)

Crianças, idiotas, lunáticos

e mulheres não podem, e

não têm capacidade para

realizar negócios” (Henry

VIII (século XVI)

No início da civilização as mulheres eram reconhecidas como seres inferiores

Women in science: a difficult history

♦ Augusta Ada Byron, Countess of Lovelace — better known as "Ada Lovelace” — was born in London onDecember 10, 1815, and was daughter of famous poet Lord Byron;♦ From early on, Lovelace showed a talent for numbers and language. She received instruction fromWilliam Frend, a social reformer; William King, the family's doctor; and Mary Somerville, a Scottishastronomer and mathematician;♦ Ada Lovelace is considered to have written instructions for the first computer program in the mid-1800sSomerville was one of the first women to be admitted into the Royal Astronomical Society;

✓ Was born in London on 25th July 1920;

✓ Studied chemistry and physics at Newnham College, Cambridge;

✓ In 1942 - British Coal Utilization Research Association, worked on carbon fiber

technology;

✓ In 1947 - Central Government Laboratory for Chemistry in Paris where she worked on X-ray

diffraction until 1951 when she moved to King's College, London.

✓ Produced X-ray diffraction pictures of DNA which were published in Nature in April 1953. This

played an important role in establishing the structure of DNA.

✓ Came into conflict with Maurice Wilkins, who was also working on DNA at King's College, and

therefore decided to join John Bernal at Birkbeck College to carry out research into the tobacco

mosaic virus.

✓ In 1957 began to work on the polo virus.

✓ Died of ovarian cancer on 16th April 1958.

Gender in the

Global Research Landscape Executive Summary

The proportion of women among researchers and inventors is

increasing in all twelve comparator countries and regions over

time.

In nine of the twelve comparator countries and regions analyzed,

women comprise more than 40% of researchers (2011 – 2015):

the United States, European Union, United Kingdom, Canada,

Australia, France, Brazil, Denmark,

and Portugal. This is an improvement from 1996 – 2000, at which

time only Portugal has more than 40% of women among

researchers. The results vary substantially by field

of research, with women better represented in the Life and Health

Sciences. In the Physical Sciences, women are still generally and

markedly underrepresented, with women comprising less than

25% of researchers in these fields in the majority of comparators.

The global share of women among inventors listed in patent

applications increases between 1996 – 2000 (10%) and 2011 –

2015 (14%), yet women remain strongly underrepresented across

all comparators.
