Why Is Philippa Wiggins Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Philippa Marion Wiggins was a New Zealand academic, who made significant contributions to the understanding of the structure of water in living cells. Academic career Wiggins studied science at the University of Canterbury, but although she wanted to continue in physics, women at the university were not allowed to progress past stage one. Having switched to chemistry, Wiggins then won a scholarship to research at the Davy-Faraday Laboratory at the Royal Institution in London. She then completed a PhD at King's College London. Wiggins took time off to have a family and did not return to full-time work until the age of 48.
