Women’s History Month celebrations have been overshadowed in the news or completely cancelled because of the pandemic COVID-19. But Twitter has been an amazing source of shout-outs to women from the past and present that have great achievements in STEM fields. These are some of the accounts I encourage you to check out, learn from, and share with others (of course, there are many more!). Note that you do not need a Twitter account to access these tweets.
