I've found this to be something of a women's month for me, reading articles and watching tv shows about feisty, tenacious women.
First up, from Germany, Amalie Noether who Einstein called "the most significant and creative" female mathematician of all time. What did she do? From the NY Times:
She invented a theorem that united with magisterial concision two conceptual pillars of physics: symmetry in nature and the universal laws of conservation. Some consider Noether’s theorem, as it is now called, as important as Einstein’s theory of relativity; it undergirds much of today’s vanguard research in physics, including the hunt for the almighty Higgs boson.
It wasn't just that she was a great mathematician but she did it during a time when most German universities
