Florence Bascom was a pioneering American geologist and the first woman to earn a Ph.D. in geology in the United States, receiving her degree from Johns Hopkins University in 1893. She made significant contributions to the study of geology, particularly in the fields of petrology and mineralogy, and was instrumental in establishing geology as a respected scientific discipline. Bascom also played a key role in advancing women's participation in science, serving as a mentor to many female geologists and influencing future generations through her teaching and research. Her groundbreaking work helped to elevate the status of geology and opened doors for women in the sciences.
