Think the history of science is just a lineup of lone male geniuses? This short video shows the deeper pattern behind the omissions, how women's discoveries have been erased, and why correcting the record matters. You will learn the Matilda Effect, the built-in bias that credits men's names for work done by women, and meet powerful examples like Lise Meitner, Alice Ball, Jocelyn Bell Burnell, Rosalind Franklin, and Esther Lederberg. Key takeaways: the Matilda Effect explains a systemic pattern of erasure, not isolated mistakes; cases like Meitner and Ball changed the world yet were denied proper credit; erasing women from history distorts science, removes role models, and affects who pursues STEM today; historians are actively digging up archives to restore credit by unearthing evidence, challenging the official story, and celebrating overlooked pioneers. If a name on this list surprised you, drop a comment with other women scientists who deserve more recognition, like the video if you learned something, and subscribe for more historical deep dives.
