Well, *I* think you guys are great, and I'm grateful you are an intact American family. I used food stamps when my husband had a brain tumor and couldn't work or care for our 1 year old (who's now 11) and I am almost done with my PhD. KEEP GOING, YOU'VE GOT THIS!!

I enjoy this question.

Along those lines: Dr. Kara Bren (http://chem.rochester.edu/~kbgrp/), Dr. Marie Curie, Dr. Allison Frontier…
