A science-loving blogger has created a series of periodic table-inspired posters celebrating female boffins.
Kapil Bhagat, a graphic artist from India, came up with the designs to honour multi-Nobel Prize-winning Marie Curie, who died 89 years ago this month.
The elements we spotted:
Marie Curie = Radium
Geneticist Barbara McClintock = Boron
Astronomer Maria Mitchell = Iodine
Biophysicist Rosalind Franklin = Aluminium, Nitrogen and Dubnium
