Hi! today I going to talk abaut a person I admire in science, I love the idea of talking abaout a person, because in my case, i will talk about a very interesting woman, Lynn Margulis.
Lynn is a biologist, she was born in USA in 1938 and died in 2011. She studied at the University of Chicago and excelled in all him studies. She contributed to the theory of evolution of the eukaryote with the theory of endosymbiosis, that gives an explanation of the origin of eukaryotic cells. Also Lynn contribuited in the area og microbiology, especially in the ecology of microorgansms and their importance.
The reason why Lynn inspires me, it`s because she had a particular vision abaout of the evolution, she says that evolution has been based on cooperation and not just competition, an innovative look which reminds me that women provide new perspectives that break the traditional ones. Also, that woman are valuable and important in sciencie. Lynn was undoubetdly a biologist whose legacy ins very present.
