Hi everyone! Apologies for being a week late, but work has been busy. This week we are featuring Marian Ewurama Addy who was a Ghanaian biochemist and the first host of the National Science and Maths Quiz. She was also the first Ghanaian woman to become full professor of natural science, all of which made her a role model for school girls and budding female scientists in STEM. This will be our last episode with Maia, because she's been busy with fieldwork, so from here on out Ellen and Susi will rock the show :) Happy listening!
