Gaines Receives Suffrage Science Award
The Suffrage Science scheme was initiated by Professor Dame Amanda Fisher, Director of the MRC London Institute of Medicine to celebrate and inspire women in science. Every two years, each Suffrage Science awardee passes her award on to a woman whose achievements inspire her and other women in science. One chain of the award is dedicated to women who have contributed to understandings of science both within and beyond the scientific community. Gaines was selected for her narrative writing about science and for her role in developing the innovative Fiction Meets Science program.
