Women in Chemistry

The Women in Chemistry Oral History Project collects interviews with women who began their careers in the post–Title IX era (after 1972). The project aims to bring women in the Greater Philadelphia area together through a social network for current and aspiring chemists and to provide a forum for discussion of the experiences recorded in CHF's oral histories. 

The materials in this collection will be used to develop educational materials for young women interested in pursuing chemistry as a field of study.
