#womeninSTEM A name that has quietly reshaped the world of algebraic geometry, Dr. Neena Gupta has redefined how we think about some of the toughest problems in mathematics. Winner of the 2024 Infosys Prize in Mathematical Sciences, she tackled the decades-old Zariski Cancellation Problem and earned global recognition for her achievement. She is also part of a growing wave of women transforming the STEM landscape, not only through brilliant research but also with fresh perspectives and fearless thinking. Here’s to more voices, more breakthroughs, and many more women shaping the future of science and mathematics.

The NSTF, in partnership with member @SciBono Discovery Centre in Johannesburg, recognises the International Day of Women and Girls in Science today. This significant day is commemorated annually on 11 February, highlighting the critical role women and girls play in #STEM, and the urgent need to address the gender gap in these fields. (STEM = science, technology, engineering and mathematics.) The 2025 theme, “Equity in Science for a Sustainable Future,” underscores the importance of creating inclusive opportunities for women and girls to actively contribute to solving pressing global challenges like climate change, #health issues, and environmental sustainability. This special day was marked by an inspiring talk titled “Making #mathematics count” by Dr Lynn Bowie, Director at @OLICO Maths Education, winner of the 2024 NSTF-@South32 Award to a Non-Governmental Organisation. This was done as part of the NSTF Share ‘n Dare outreach programme, providing platforms for NSTF Award winners to act as role models and #ambassadors for #science, #engineering, #technology (SET) and #innovation. The winners share knowledge with #youth and communities, inspiring young people to pursue studies and careers in STEM. #WomenInSTEM #GirlsInScience #STEMcareers #STEMstudies #STEMrolemodels #STEMambassodors #DiversityInScience #WomenWhoLead #ScienceForAll #WomenInTech #STEMeducation #WomenEmpowerment #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience #HerVoiceInScience #BreakingBarriers
