Could this be the birth of Female Inorganic Chemists??? Suggest your fave women in inorganic chemistry to Dr. Push!
Looking to expand network of amazing Women in Inorganic Chemistry in Universities around the world, who is out there? Suggestions anyone? Who is rocking the field? #womeninchemistry #inorganic #chemistry #WiC

In lecture today, we discussed the Catellani reaction - one of the few reactions named after a woman. I thought the timing was perfect for #IWD! Credit to @WIC_Toronto for the image and bio!

Staying focused: The Female Organic Chemists in University Settings (FOCUS) website continues to grow as a resource @FemOrgChem. Please check it out: https://t.co/GQ007rNSMY. BTW, a WSJ article notes that women now make up about 60% of U.S. college students, and growing. @JOC_OL

Dr. Kozlowski was inspired to co-create @FemOrgChem to bring more visibility to women in organic chemistry. On the road to her PhD, she encountered less than 5 female professors in her field. There are now over 1000 professors from over 50 countries in the FOCUS database. (6/6)
