Share what a scientist looks like

Science News for StudentsÌýis seeking images, audio and video of women in science for its upcoming feature about the importance of women in ÖÐÎÄÎÞÂë — and the challenges they face.

, an online publication of ÖÐÎÄÎÞÂë & the Public, wants to show what a scientist looks like. For many years, the answer looked like a Caucasian male, often with a funny hairdo and a lab coat. But women are scientists too, and science, technology, engineering, and math (or ÖÐÎÄÎÞÂë) fields are better for it.
