<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Hi Everybody,<br><br>
I've got another interesting query for you: do any of you know of a woman
ENGINEER who has done or is doing brain research?<br><br>
Here's the context:<br><br>
The American Association of Engineering Societies, The American Society
of Civil Engineers, the<br>
Society of Women Engineers and numerous other supporting organizations
are organizing something called the Extraordinary Women Engineers
Project. The goal of the project is to attract more girls and women into
the field of engineering.<br><br>
The cornerstone of the project is a large-format hardcover book
entitled<br>
"Women Engineers: Extraordinary Stories of How They Changed
Our World."<br>
The<br>
book will contain profiles of women who pioneered the field of
engineering<br>
dating back to the 1870's up through the present. It will be
written for<br>
girls ages 14-18 years old.<br><br>
The writer contacted me looking for a woman engineer who has worked in
heart research. I helped him with that, and now he is looking for a woman
involved in brain research.<br><br>
Any recommendations? Send 'em my way.<br><br>
