Abstract

In 1911, 50 invitations were sent to potential members of a new ‘Biochemical Club’. Each of those invited to form what eventually in 1913 became the Biochemical Society had one thing in common: all were men. If women were marginalized at the Biochemical Society's inception, they quickly gained a foothold within the field of biochemistry. Over a series of articles, we will chart the careers of the first three women members of the Society: Harriette Chick, Ida Smedley and Muriel Wheldale.
