Life's too short to wade through all those words when I've got so much to catch up on here anyway so I'm out for this one.

Gerty Theresa Cori, née Radnitz is doing very well. Surprised me, anyway. Overall turnout to vote is better than feared. Well done Wrig. |

Gerty’s cameos on the Basil Brush show may have garnered a few votes.....

I'd hoped Barbara McClintock would do better, I guess she's more famous in the US than here. Apart from being easily the most influential scientist on the list, I like the story of her childhood. Her father was a homeopath (not a great start for someone who eventually won the Nobel Prize for medicine.) Her mother changed her name to Barbara when she was small because as a toddler, she wasn't "feminine enough" for her birthname Eleanor. Her mother then didn't want her to go to college, because it would put men off marrying her. |

Pool E. en.wikipedia.org seems to have all the facts, without really giving much context. |
