<p>If you’re looking forward to next week’s Ada Lovelace Day 2024 events, here’s an appetiser for you. </p>



<p>The Edinburgh Women in STEM Trail created for the University’s Ada Lovelace Day 2023 event has a new home on Curious Edinburgh, which offers mobile walking tours on Edinburgh’s scientific and community heritage. </p>



<p>Visit the <a href="http://curiousedinburgh.org/women-in-stem-trail/" data-type="link" data-id="http://curiousedinburgh.org/women-in-stem-trail/">Curious Edinburgh</a> webpage or get the app to see the tour in its new home.</p>

<p> What do a riot-causing medical student, a famous entomologist, a best-selling author-astronomer, an adventurous botanist and a pioneer of genetic engineering have in common? They are all women you can find out about in this tour, which features locations in Edinburgh connected to amazing women in STEM. Celebrate equality, diversity and inclusion in STEM by taking a look at Edinburgh-connected women who have made an impact in a wide range of STEM fields.</p>
