Dr. Jessica Wade - Our #1 Champion of Women in S.T.E.M.

Dr. Jessica Wade came from a family of brilliant scientific brains, so it's no wonder she dove head first into science, too. The further she got into her studies, though, the more she realized how alone she was - there were hardly any other women with her in Grad school! In fact, statistically the UK's numbers of women in S.T.E.M. are some of the lowest in the world.

Jess, however, was not deterred. She finished her studies and her career has blossomed - but even more impressive is the fact that she has also become one of the world's #1 champion of women in S.T.E.M.. She talks with students, families and teachers, she nominates women for awards and prizes left and write, she gives away dozens of copies of the book that inspired her to activate these activist superpowers,  but you'll never guess what her most powerful, and prolific, tool has been in her advocacy - WIKIPEDIA!

Listen now to learn more about this awe-inspiring Broad who Sara, quite frankly, would like to be best friends with.
