French scientist Marie Curie is known for discovering polonium and radium in the nineteenth century, later becoming the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. The DNA research of English scientist Rosalind Franklin was crucial in the discovery of the double helix structure in the 1950s. American physicist and chemist Katharine Burr Blodgett invented non-reflective glass coating in the 1930s, which is used today in optical equipment such as eyeglasses and computer screens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>McLoud-Mann appeared as the only living scientist of out the four, something All\u00e8gre said was deliberate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI also wanted to include a living woman scientist, to show young people that it is still possible today to become a great scientist and to make these role models feel closer and more inspiring,\u201d All\u00e8gre said. \u201cHaving a living scientist also helps people relate more easily, since she is part of our current society. It\u2019s especially meaningful for children: it helps them see that doing science is possible today, even if you\u2019re a girl.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2026\/02\/stem-blog-bordeaux-science-trail-jennifer-illustration-hero-683x1024.png\" alt=\"Illustration of McLoud-Mann holding a ruler in one hand and a paper diagram of a pentagon in the other.

Rosalind Franklin herself was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour\/classroom\/daily-news-lessons\/2021\/10\/daily-news-lesson-how-recognition-was-denied-to-to-rosalind-franklins-breakthrough-dna-discovery\">not credited for her work on X-ray diffraction DNA images<\/a> which led to the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA.

A toucan-shaped model was used to present the 15th type, something that was \u201cchosen to be both playful and visually appealing,\u201d said All\u00e8gre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uwb.edu\/stem\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2026\/02\/stem-blog-bordeaux-science-trail-toucans-hero.png\" alt=\"Model of pentagons put together to form six toucan shapes \u2013 two in blue, two in gray and two in red.
