This is the second part in our three-part series with Dr Lauren Mullin. Just as a reminder, Lauren is Lead Analytical Scientist at Arxada and founder of ChemHerstory blog, which is dedicated to communicating the stories of the lost women in the history of STEM. Over the next three episodes we meet one inspirational woman from history and you will be blown away are the details Lauren shares.

In this episode we meet:

Dr. Kamala (Bhagvat) Sohonie (1911-1998) was the first Indian woman to receive a doctorate degree in science (Cambridge University, 1939). Before that, Dr. Sohonie directly challenged her initial rejection based entirely on her gender from a graduate programme in her home country by sitting in protest until finally admitted, paving the way for other woman to study after her. Dr. Sohonie was a biochemist, and her research covered a lot of ground--including improving nutrition for impoverished children and pregnant women.
