Christina Miller

Chemistry

Christina Cruikshank Miller (1899 to 2001) was a Scottish chemist and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, one of the first five women elected to the Society, on 7 March 1949, and the first female chemist to be elected. She was deaf from childhood and lost the sight of one eye in a laboratory explosion in 1930. The Christina Miller Building within Edinburgh University's Kings Buildings is named in her honour, as is Christina Miller Hall at Heriot-Watt University. The source lead for this entry is a short paragraph, so it records her nationality, her field, her election and her memorials and leaves her research and her career to further research from fuller sources.
