In this series, we illuminate the lives and work of a diverse array of groundbreaking scientists who, because of time, place and gender, have gone largely unrecognized. Each season we focus on a different scientist, putting her narrative into context, explaining not just the science but also the social and historical conditions in which she lived and worked. We also bring these stories to the present, painting a full picture of how her work endures.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-16T12:22:22.221308+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/lost-women-of-science-4474223"},"episode":{"title":"Tilly Edinger: The Paleoneurologist Saved By Her Science","slug":"tilly-edinger-the-paleoneurologist-saved-by-her-science","published_at":"2026-06-11T03:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/lost-women-of-science-4474223/tilly-edinger-the-paleoneurologist-saved-by-her-science","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/lost-women-of-science-4474223","url":"https://play.prx.org/listen?ge=prx_413_ca8967ea-efe6-4428-9293-4ac73e7e566b&uf=https%3A%2F%2Ffeed.lostwomenofscience.org","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/tracking.swap.fm/track/sblTq32fyWAjsHzze2LG/dovetail.prxu.org/_/413/ca8967ea-efe6-4428-9293-4ac73e7e566b/Tilly_-_Mastered_Part_1.mp3","summary":"How much can you understand about a brain when that brain is long gone? Tilly Edinger, a Jewish paleontologist, used fossilized skulls to study the evolution of brains. That research allowed her to escape Nazi Germany in 1939, and create a new subdivision of paleontology, paleoneurology.
