I can easily name physicists like Einstein, Bohr, and Dirac. But when it comes to women in physics, the names most people remember are far fewer, often just Marie Curie.

This is not because women were absent from the history of physics, but because their stories are told less often. Even during my own studies, I realised how rarely women physicists appeared in lectures, textbooks, or discussions. The first time I encountered Noether's theorem, I assumed "Noether" must be a man's name, simply because that was the pattern I had seen.

We like to say that science has no gender, but the way scientific history is presented still carries biases.

That is why I started this series: to tell the stories of women in physics, to make their contributions more visible, and to remind myself and others that they have always been part of the field.
