Prize, scientist

A) is this a type of diploma? B) title of reference says female scientist. Is this the "first", or was she the first scientist of either gender? Elinruby (talk) 05:21, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Elinruby, and thank you for that!

A) this is a problem of translation, these words can be changed to "Science University degree with special mention" / "...Honourable mention" / "...with Honours" (I am not sure which one.... but I guess any of them would be better -even though the translation is not totally exact either, it will be better understood though)

B) she was the first female oceanographer in Spain, but there had been male oceanographers before such as Odón de Buen y del Cos, the founder of the Spanish Institute of Oceanography where she was the first female hired scientist.
