Women in STEM

This inspiring exhibition presents the scientific and personal stories of women who have shaped the world—often despite the time, society, and circumstances in which they lived or continue to live.

The Women in STEM initiative aims to foster progress and sustain the interest of young women in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Throughout history, women have made significant contributions to these disciplines, even as they often faced gender inequality—especially at the highest levels of the scientific community and industry.

At the exhibition, you’ll meet trailblazers in their fields, such as Hypatia, the most renowned mathematician of ancient Greece, and Ada Lovelace, the world’s first computer programmer. You’ll also discover stories of contemporary scientists who are changing the world—like Samira Mubareka, who contributed to decoding the COVID-19 virus, and Fei-Fei Li, a leading expert in artificial intelligence.

The exhibition is held as part of M3 – May, the Month of Mathematics, organized by the Center for the Promotion of Science, in collaboration with Integrninum and NERSC, organizations dedicated to empowering and encouraging women and girls to pursue careers in STEM.

The exhibition will take place at the Palace of Science, in the Word Hall, from May 23 to June 8, 2025.
