    Nettie Stevens, the scientist who never got credit.
    Recognition doesn’t always follow achievement.

    Her work changed how science understands biological development, yet her name rarely appears.

  31. Happy birthday to Canadian 🇨🇦 geneticist Irene Ayako Uchida (1917-2013)! My #linocut is hand printed on 9.25” x 12.5” Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper. Uchida is shown surrounded by chromosones, with anomalies (shown with pink arrows) due to radiation exposure, based on one of her research papers. A strand of DNA is hidden in the image (as her watchband).⁠

  36. "Men tend to lose the Y chromosome from their cells as they age. But because the Y bears few genes other than for male determination, it was thought this loss would not affect health.

    But evidence has mounted over the past few years that when people who have a Y chromosome lose it, the loss is associated with serious diseases throughout the body, contributing to a shorter lifespan."
