From Wikipedia - Lynn Margulis (March 5, 1938 – November 22, 2011^[1]) was an American biologist and University Professor in the Department of Geosciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.^[2] She is best known for her theory on the origin of eukaryotic organelles, and her contributions to the endosymbiotic theory, which is now generally accepted for how certain organelles were formed. She is also associated with the Gaia hypothesis, based on an idea developed by the English environmental scientist James Lovelock.

I first heard about Margulis in my Introduction to Plant Biology class. Like any good scientist, she put her neck out there and stirred up some controversy; her death is a loss to everyone.

Even though it was last month, it still makes me pretty sad whenever I hear news of a scientist passing away. We severely need more women like Lynn, passionate about her work while inciting ideas that really make people think about life.

This is pretty much how I feel when I have to endure too many other people’s opinions. Or after reading the news.
