Women in chemistry from being a minority are now occupying the most important positions, in realms one thought were unachievable before. Chemistry has a reputation for being more cut-throat than biology or physics. It has a macho culture in which getting to the finish line first is more important than how you get there. From winning Nobel Prizes to heading NASA, women scientists have etched their names in history.

About Riya
An ambitious teenaged Riya Rajesh Agrawal (born December 25, 2006), having been brought up in a pharmaceutical/chemical owned business family already, Riya was particularly inspired by her father who further instilled deep enthusiasm. Thereafter Riya started undertaking research projects on her own and was fascinated by the possibility that her findings might end up in a practical application in the open market.
Being an influencer
Riya views that we should go deeper to nurture the concept of equality between male and female right from the beginning of child education by encouraging young girls to strive for rewarding careers and encouraging men to support them. ‘Science, technology and engineering drive progress in our country, the untapped female talent pool is potentially vast. In addition, she thinks social activities and events in schools and universities will motivate young females to be involved in science, undoubtedly extra funding opportunities for female scientists will increase their numbers in modern science.
