Famous Women Scientist

JANE GOODALL

Jane Goodall is  perhaps one of the most famous women scientist in the world. She was an ecologist and is most famous for her work with the African Gombe chimpanzees, which she continued over for over thrity years. She was also the first to discover the tools amongst animals. She was a very famous primatologist, ecologist, and anthropologist. She has worked extensively on conservation and animal welfare issues.

I chose Jane Goodall becuase I know that she was pasionate about animals and Africa. I also love animals and want to visit Africa some day. I don't want to be an ecologist, anthroplogist, or a primatoligist but, I am very interested in the her accomplishments. She discovered things to help educate the people in the future and I appreciate her accomplishments.

When you think science what scientist comes to mind? What was this person(s) contributions and why do you admire them?

When I think of science Albert Einstein comes to my mind. He made many contributions to science. A Few examples are general relativity, effecting a revolution in physics. He is also known as the father of modern phyics. I admire him for winning the noble peace prize in 1921 for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect.

Name 2 goals for the remainder of the year

 This year, I have many goals as a chemistry student. One of my goals for the remainder of the year would be to have a deeper understanding of chemistry's concepts and purposes.  My second goal would be to improve my study habits in the subject and go in to ask for help when needed.
