Foundation president, Harvey Fineberg, and chairman emeritus and co-founder, Gordon Moore, discuss the Statement of Founders’ Intent with staff.
We seek and coordinate with individuals and organizations that have good ideas and the ability to execute. The success of our strategies hinges on capable grantees and we work closely with them as respected experts in their fields.
Lost Women of Science tells the remarkable stories of forgotten women of science. They are a non-profit educational organization with the overarching goal of inspiring girls and young women – especially those from communities chronically underrepresented in the STEM professions – to embark on careers in STEM. The Initiative’s flagship is its Lost Women of Science podcast, producing four multi-episode seasons per year. As a full, mission-driven organization, the Lost Women of Science Initiative plans to digitize and archive our research efforts and make all primary source material available to students, educators, and historians of science.
The Lost Women of Science podcast series is an exemplar of top-notch journalism, training a lens on forgotten but heroic women of science. Each multi-episode season will focus on a different female scientist and will be told as a deeply reported, scripted, and scored audio narrative.
