Grandma Got STEM

Grandma Got STEM is a blog by Rachel Levy, a mathematician at Harvey Mudd College, about earlier generations of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).[1][2][3][4][5][6] Levy founded the blog in March 2013, and by June 2013 had already accumulated 100 posts to it.[7]

The blog is aimed at a general audience.[8] Its entries include pictures and stories about women who worked in STEM fields, and are intended to counter stereotypes of older women as being technologically inept,[1][9] as well as to inspire future generations of women in STEM.[2]

As the name of the blog suggests, the women featured on the blog are generally old enough to be grandmothers, although not all of them had children.[2] Although many famous researchers are included, the blog posts also feature women who worked at lower-level teaching and laboratory assistant positions in STEM.[6]
