Challenges and Change for Women of Color in Science – A Conversation with Evelynn Hammonds, Chair and Professor of the History of Science

Welcome to HMSC Connects! where Jennifer Berglund goes behind the scenes of four Harvard museums to explore the connections between us, our big, beautiful world, and even what lies beyond.

For our third episode celebrating the Women's Suffrage Centennial this month, Jennifer is speaking with Professor Evelynn Hammonds, Chair of the Department of the History of Science at Harvard. Early in her career as a graduate student in physics at MIT, Professor Hammonds discovered more urgent questions about the lack of women, particularly Women of Color, in scientific disciplines.
