Katalin Karikรณโ€™s Nobel Prize Marks the Beginning of an mRNA Vaccine Revolution Nobel Prize winners Katalin Karikรณ and Drew Weissman pioneered the technology that produced a Covid-19 vaccine in record time. Next, mRNA could tackle flu, malaria, and HIV.

Katalin Karikรณโ€™s decades-long belief in mRNA paid off when her research became the foundation for COVID-19 vaccines. Rejected, demoted, and doubted yet she persisted. ๐Ÿงฌ๐Ÿ’‰ How many lives were saved thanks to her conviction in the science? #WomenInSTEM

Lise Meitner โ€“ the forgotten woman of nuclear physics who deserved a Nobel Prize Left off publications due to Nazi prejudice, this Jewish woman lost her rightful place in the scientific pantheon as the discoverer of nuclear fission.

"Feared for their brilliance" She cracked the atomic code but wasnโ€™t invited to the Nobel stage. Lise Meitnerโ€™s brilliance helped uncover nuclear fission, yet she was sidelined by history. What would science look like if fear hadnโ€™t dimmed her light? ๐Ÿ”ฌโœจ #WomenInSTEM #FridayThe13th

More than 400 CDC staff may be called back to work after being laid off in April Laid off workers were told their notices of an upcoming reduction in force were "revoked." Officials didn't explain why HHS appeared to be restoring hundreds of jobs it previously called duplicative.
