In 1917, Alma Hiller became the first woman to publish in the (). Her contribution was followed by articles from Carol Beeler and Isabel Mary Wason. This study explores their careers and contributions.
We reviewed articles from 1917 to 1925 and identified Hiller, Beeler, and Wason as the first three women authors. Using public records, we obtained information of their educations and careers.
Hiller demonstrated resilience in obtaining training and ultimately contributed to innovation in clinical chemistry. Beeler worked on research on metabolic physiology. Wason influenced both lab work and national policy.
For female scientists entering the workforce in the late 1800s/early 1900s, reception was contingent upon the acceptance of male colleagues. Despite these barriers, Hiller, Beeler, and Wason contributed to novel discoveries. Their most influential contributions remain their historic presence as early female researchers and the first female authors in .
1917年,阿尔玛·希勒成为首位在《()》上发表文章的女性。在她之后,卡罗尔·比勒和伊莎贝尔·玛丽·沃森也发表了文章。本研究探讨了她们的职业生涯及贡献。
我们查阅了1917年至1925年的文章,并确定希勒、比勒和沃森为前三位女性作者。通过公共记录,我们获取了她们的教育和职业信息。
希勒在获得培训方面展现出坚韧不拔的精神,并最终为临床化学的创新做出了贡献。比勒致力于代谢生理学的研究。沃森对实验室工作和国家政策都产生了影响。
对于19世纪末20世纪初进入职场的女性科学家来说,能否被接受取决于男性同事的认可。尽管存在这些障碍,希勒、比勒和沃森仍做出了新的发现。她们最具影响力的贡献仍然是作为早期女性研究人员以及《()》的首批女性作者的历史地位。
