- **Event Name**: The Hidden and Erased Women of Science
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 19 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Celebrate Women's History Month with Danielle Cavender-Handley in this fun, rye and engaging talk.

As St Albans gears up to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the death of Francis Bacon, this talk turns the scientific focus on its head and asks why so many of the scientists we know about are men, and where are the women? The word "scientist" had to be invented after women began making breakthroughs in the field, and therefore the original term - "men of science" - couldn't be used any more, and yet so many incredible women have been systematically erased and overlooked throughout the history of scientific discovery, and it's time we change that. 

So join us to learn, among other things, who really discovered the structure of DNA (because it wasn't the men who got the Nobel prize); who did Einstein's maths for him and the astounding number of other "brilliant men" who never published another paper after their wives died.
