When Winifred Edgerton Merrill received her PhD from @Columbia in 1886, she was the first woman to receive a degree from the university and first American woman to receive a PhD in Mathematics. Happy #WomensHistoryMonth to all women making history in STEM past and present!

In honor of #womenhistorymonth, we are highlighting the outstanding scientists who are part of IICD. Get to know them all month long as they share about their journey in STEM.
