Abstract
Like many science and engineering fields, electrochemistry has historically been dominated by male researchers. This perspective celebrates the contributions of female electrochemists and studies trends in the number of women recognized by the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE), the Electrochemical Society (ECS), the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), and the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) for their work in electrochemical fields. In recent years, women are being recognized more frequently for impactful electrochemical research, signaling the beginning of a journey toward more equal representation in a field in which men and women together can solve the world’s greatest energy challenges.
