  1. Happy birthday to #biochemist Marie Maynard Daly (1921-2003), 1st Black woman to earn a PhD in #chemistry in the US! She made important research contributions to our understanding of the biochemisty of the cell nucleus & cardiovascular issues & the chemistry of histones & protein synthesis. She established that “no bases other than adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine were present in appreciable amounts” in DNA - 🧵

  3. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🍀🧬 Only about one in 5,000 #clovers has four #leaves. Why are they so hard to find?

    Esther Ikoro explains how biological variation and factors like #soil, #air, #temperature, or even nibbling #insects determine if a seed grows in unexpected ways. She also shares a visual trick you can use to find them in a clover patch.

  21. #BlackHistoryMonth is a great time to celebrate #mathematician & #geodesist Gladys West (née Brown 1930-2026). Shown with 3 satellites important to her career + tracks: Seasat, GEOS-3 & a GPS satellite. Her work, using math to precisely model the shape of Earth, laid groundwork for GPS!

    Born to sharecropper parents in Virginia, she graduated with a Math BSc in ‘52 then MSc at VSU in ‘55. 🧵

  23. This Black History Month, we honor the long and enduring legacy of Black geoscientists, across geophysics, geochemistry, engineering, and every corner of the geosciences.

    The National Association of Black Geoscientists exists to recognize that legacy, support today’s professionals, and invest in the next generation.

    Black history is Earth history—and the work continues. #NABG #blackhistorymonth #blackinstem #blackingeology #geosciences

  24. #BlackHistoryMonth is a great time to celebrate astronaut Mae Carol Jemison (born October 17, 1956) a physician who became the first Black woman to travel in space when she went into orbit aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour for NASA, on September 12, 1992! She also has a B.S. in chemical engineering, served in the Peace Corps, is a dancer and choreographer, 🧵

  25. #BlackHistoryMonth is a great time to celebrate mathematician and NASA scientist Katherine Johnson (née Coleman; 1918 – 2020). One of the first Black women employed as a NASA scientist (and its predecessor NACA), she was known for her mastery of complex manual calculations of orbital mechanics and played a pivotal role in the success of the US crewed spaceflights from the beginning.🧵
