🏆 NOBEL HERSTORY: Can you guess who she is?
Pharmacologist | Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, 2015

In the midst of war and a malaria crisis, one woman looked to the past to save the future.

In the 1960s, during the Vietnam War, she led secret research under Project 523, searching for a cure for malaria — a disease disabling up to 90% of troops.

🌿 Her breakthrough? Turning to ancient Chinese medicine.

She unearthed centuries-old texts and traveled across China to learn from traditional healers. Inspired by a 1,600-year-old fever remedy using sweet wormwood and a 4th-century extraction technique, she successfully isolated artemisinin, one of the most effective anti-malarial treatments in the world.

⚗️ She even tested it on herself first — to ensure its safety.

In 2015, she became the first Chinese woman to win a Nobel Prize in Medicine, credited with saving millions of lives worldwide.

💡 Her story is a tribute to courage, curiosity, and the power of combining traditional knowledge with modern science.

👀 Do you know who she is? Share your guess in the comments and stay tuned for the reveal next week!

📖 G-STEAM Academy featured in BRICKS Magazine!

We are delighted to share that the G-STEAM Academy has been featured in Issue 2/2026 of BRICKS, dedicated to “Artificial Intelligence, Coding and Creativity.”

Written by Martina Dominici from our partner Smart Venice, the article presents the G-STEAM Academy’s work to promote gender-sensitive, intersectional and inclusive approaches within STEAM education and teacher training.

It highlights the importance of looking beyond participation figures and critically reflecting on how language, teaching materials, examples, expectations and assessment practices may influence which educational pathways appear accessible and desirable to different learners.

The article also introduces two key pillars of the project:

📚 The open-access G-STEAM Training Programme for Mentors and Trainers
🌍 The European G-STEAM Community of Practice, bringing together teachers, trainers, researchers and educational stakeholders

🏆 NOBEL HER STORY: Marie Skłodowska-Curie

She didn’t just break the glass ceiling — she shattered it twice.
In 1903, Marie Skłodowska-Curie became the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, awarded in Physics alongside Pierre Curie and Henri Becquerel for their pioneering work on radioactivity.

But she didn’t stop there.
In 1911, she made history again — becoming the first person ever to win two Nobel Prizes, this time in Chemistry, for discovering the elements polonium and radium.

🔬 Curie’s groundbreaking research transformed science and medicine — and paved the way for generations of women in STEM.

💡 Her legacy lives on in every girl who dares to ask “what if?” and every classroom where curiosity is celebrated.
