GitHub - hacking-innovation-bias/Hacking-Gender-Bias-Visibility-Box: This Box addresses the Gender Bias of a seemingly objective expert discussion in science. It stresses the problem of underrepresentation of female scientists and their work and displays this visually by the image of an All-Male-Panel. This panel is labeld "Greatest Scientists" and shows Galileo Galilei, Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein and Erwin Schrödinger. You can look into the box through a small hole in the front side.

And highlight, for all the aspiring students out there, that there are many inspiring female scientists which they could model themselves onto.
