    Embodying The Spirit Of Research And Scientific Discovery For Over 45 Years

    As part of Digital Science's celebrations for Ada Lovelace Day, I'd like to share a few words about my one of my female role models, Dr Jane Goodall.

    "Jane has embodied the spirit of research and scientific discovery for over 45 years! Her tireless observations of chimpanzees and meticulous notes led to significant discoveries like the fact that chimpanzees make tools that they utilize – formerly only thought to be achieved by humans. Her lifelong commitment to research and discovery has inspired and resulted in a valiant volume of data, both written and visual."
    "Several Jane Goodall research centers, such as the Jane Goodall Institute Research Center at Duke University and the Jane Goodall Research Center of USC, care for and offer access to this data to benefit current and future scientists."
    "Just as Ada Lovelace was an example of how one mathematician can make a big difference, Jane Goodall is a living example of how just one person, one scientist, can make a HUGE difference in the world! Jane continues to travel around the world spreading her message about the importance of conservation and preservation, empowering young scientists, modeling actions toward the betterment of the world, and instilling hope."
