Women in
Science is a card game that familiarizes players with remarkable, often
unknown, women of science and offers inspiring role models for students. It was
created by Anouk Charles and Benoît Fries, who wanted to show examples of
scientific women to their daughter as alternative role models -instead of
princesses and over-sexualized singers or actresses.
It can be
played as traditional French card playing cards (hearts, spades, diamonds and
clubs) but the original idea was to create a new game with new rules.

have realized, there are no Spanish women in the deck. Nevertheless, there are
a lot of successful engineers, scientists and researchers in our country.
