Let's learn more about Marie Tharp!

⚡️Marie Tharp was an American geologist and oceanographer. She helped map the ocean floor.

#GoogleDoodle #MarieTharp #Geology #oceans Image
⚡️ The map led Tharp to realize that the ocean floor could help prove the scientific theory of continental drift and the idea that the continents are moving.
⚡️ In the late 1940s, Tharp began working as a research assistant at the @Lamont_Doherty at Columbia University, NY. This is where she met her fellow geologist Bruce Heezen, with whom she would work for the next 30 years.

If today’s #GoogleDoodle made you say, “who is Bose, boss?” - you’ve landed on the right thread 🤭

Obviously, we have quite a few #SNBose fans on this side of the table, so gather around, we’re all ready to tell this story.
Some background on Bose - he was an Indian physicist, mathematician, language-expert, musician and a total pro at a WHOLE lot of other things.

Basically, he was the kid in your class who was a topper and was cool 😮‍💨
How it started: Bose's interest in numbers was sparked in his childhood by his dad, who gave him a math problem to solve every time he left for work.

⏩ a few years: Bose had a Master’s in Applied Mathematics from the University of Calcutta. He topped his batch (ofc) 🙌

The #GoogleDoodle today recognizes virologist Michiaki Takahashi, who developed the Oka strain of VZV (varicella-zoster virus), the causative agent of chickenpox and herpes zoster (shingles).

Let's take a minute to talk about why it matters. Image
Chickenpox has a low mortality in healthy children & it was highly prevalent, but in children with immune deficiencies, it was a significant cause of death.

As many as 10% of children with leukemias would survive their cancer into remission, only to die suddenly of acute VZV.
So the goal for a chickenpox vaccine, in addition to reducing disease burden and rare complications, was to increase the survivability of childhood cancers.

The Oka strain was taken from a 3 yr old boy in Japan who was otherwise healthy, then passaged (grown) many times... Image

Una de las pioneras en defender la patria, la igualdad y los derechos de la mujer. 👩🇦🇷

Hoy, en #ArgentinasHistóricas, celebramos a Mariquita Sánchez de Thompson, una de las primeras mujeres argentinas políticamente activas. 👇
Con sus tertulias, convocó a las principales figuras de su tiempo y se convirtió en la personalidad femenina más activa en el proceso revolucionario. 💪

Descubrí más sobre "la anfitriona de la revolución de mayo" junto a @mundotkmcom en @YouTubegoo.gle/3oiWoZy
Este año, "¿Dónde se cantó por primera vez el himno nacional?" fue una de las preguntas de mayor interés en las búsquedas de @Google. 🔍 #AñoEnBúsquedas

Y fue en la quinta de Mariquita, "Los Ombúes", ubicada en @SanIsidroGob.

#PuLa Today is the 101st Janmatithi of the great Purushottam Laxman ('Pu La') Deshpande - one of the most beloved personalities of the Marathi speaking world.

Here is a long thread (articles, videos, references), which I had compiled last year to celebrate his birth centenary.⬇️
Great to see Google honoring #PuLa today, on his 101st birth anniversary.

#GoogleDoodle für Mascha Kaléko gestern! Die #Augsburg|er #Komponistin Erna Woll (1917–2005) vertonte mehrere ihrer Lieder für Chor, darunter sehr eindrücklich-ergreifend das "Wohin ich immer reise, ich fahr nach Nirgendland" (bald über das @archivfraumusik zu hören). Image
Die #Dirigentin Elke Mascha Blankenburg (1943–2013), Ideengeberin & Mitbegründerin des @archivfraumusik, war von Kaléko so beeindruckt, dass sie deren Vornamen zu ihrem Künstlerinnennamen machte. Ruth Klüger verfasste 2012 diesen Artikel über Kaléko: welt.de/kultur/literar…
Erna Woll lebte in Augsburg in einer Lebenspartnerinnenschaft mit Mathilde Hoechstetter (1899–1980), die wiederum die Schriftstellerin Gertrud von le Fort (1876–1971) verehrte, deren Gedichte Erna Woll ebenfalls vertonte:

1) #GoogleDoodle today is on #Persian Polymath, philosopher, & poet #OmarKhayyam to celebrate his 971st birthday.

This is second time that #Google dedicated a Doodle to him. In 2012 too, #Khayyam’s 964th birthday was also celebrated by the search engine with a special #doodle
2) Here is from my PhD Dissertation:

A contemporary of #Ghazali, #OmarKhayyam was one of the most versatile scholars of the time, simultaneously a polymath, philosopher and a poet.
3) #OmarKhayyam can be regarded as a successor of al-Farabi and al-Biruni, in the line of argument although he is more famous for his #Rubaiyat (Quatrain).
