Women In Science 2021: Year after year, women scientists have denied the sexist mindset that women are not good at science. Yet the popular idea on social media and family reunions has stubbornly remained the same.

Every year, the Indian government and other institutions introduce awards and programs to honor women scientists and researchers in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). Also this year, several women were recognized by the government and world institutions. From finding stars hotter than the sun to developing a new anti-fungal strategy, women scientists have excelled in several fields of science.

Here are some women of science who made their mark in 2021:

Sumita mitra

The Indo-American chemist received the European Inventor Award this year. It is a prestigious award for innovation in Europe. Mitra won the award for its application of nanotechnology in dentistry. It won in the category of non-member countries of the European Patent Office (EPO). His creation incorporated nanoparticles into the production of dental materials, which led to a new composite for repairing teeth. She is a partner at Mitra Chemical Consulting, LLC, a business she started with her husband Smarajit Mitra.
