Relevant Scientist: Mileva Maric

This is an article about Mileva Maric, a brilliant person, who married Albert Einstein and condemned herself to be in the shadow of her husband.

She was born in Serbia (1875) and graduated in a maths and physics specialized secondary school, getting the best marks of her class, what allowed her to enter Royal School of Physics in Zagreb, where only men were accepted. Afterwards, she entered the Polytechnic Institute of Zurich, where she met her future husband, Albert Einstein.

Maric left her studies when, in 1901, she got pregnant without being married and she was forced to take cover in her sister's house. Their daughter was given in adoption.

Mileva Maric is known for having a great relevance in most of Albert Einstein's discoveries. Some may very well say that she was the one making the explorations, but that her husband stole her ideas.

I have chosen this scientist, since it shows the impact women have had in science, despite them being covered  by sexism.
