Ada Lovelace Day!

Posted on March 24, 2009 By adam

Ada Lovelace day is a day intended to honour women active in technology.  I am going to take a slightly broad definition of technology and would like to honour my wife, Amy.Amy teaches high school chemistry, math and physics at a small private school in Ontario.  She not only uses a computer in her day-to-day activities (particularly for power point presentation of notes in class), she’s also actively engaged in equipping young women for careers in science and technology driven fields.  Several of her students have moved (many at her suggestion and all with her encouragement) into medicine (nursing particularly), lab tech and biology.  She will probably be pretty embarrassed by this (as she is one of my four or so regular readers).  She has been published in the British Journal of Nutrition.
