Admin History: 'Blooming Snapdragons': a play depicting the struggle of women scientists in the early 1900s, performed by Liz Rothschild & Syreeta Kumar and directed by Sue Mayo, shown at the John Innes Centre July 2010: 'Nora Barlow, Dorothy Cayley, Caroline Pellew, Becky Saunders, Rose Scott-Moncrieff, Muriel Wheldale and many more. Lost names. Who were they? How do they fit into the genetic puzzle? This play explores the fragments of their stories that we have against the backdrop of their exclusion from academic life and their working relationship with William Bateson, the first Director of the John Innes, himself a marginalised figure from mainstream science at that time. They formed their own scientific community and the ground-breaking work that ensued was crucial in the development of modern genetics. Seen through the eyes of a contemporary scientist we see how this story reverberates today.'
