She has since been voted one of the most influential women in the history of science.Historical Consultant: Dr Rebecca Wragg Sykes Produced by Abi Paterson Scripted by Gabby Hutchinson Crouch, Emma Nagouse and Greg Jenner Research Assistance by Hannah MacKenzieAn Athletic production for BBC Radio 4
