Dr Hannah Dee's blog on Suffrage Science – decoding the brooch
17 October 2018
Here’s Hannah’s introduction to her blog:
“A week ago I went to London to borrow a piece of scientific jewellery for a couple of years. It’s a delightful, rather bonkers scheme by the MRC called Suffrage Science, whereby they chose 6 women computer scientists to receive a brooch 2 years ago, and last week they handed the brooch onto the next woman.
In just under two years time I get to hand it on to the next person, and that way it passes from scientist to scientist. I was given the brooch by the excellent Professor Carron Shankland from the University of Stirling.”
Being a techy and a geek, Hannah actually decoded the brooch; see her workings below:
