As the primary lady to win the prize, she got a check for $ 703,000. The mathematician is likewise a supporter for sexual orientation uniformity in science and arithmetic. "I am mindful of the way that I am a good example for young ladies in science," said Uhlenbeck, as indicated by a Princeton explanation.
"It's difficult to be a good example, in any case, since what you really need to do is show understudies how defective individuals can be and still succeed… I might be an awesome mathematician and celebrated as a result of it, but on the other hand I'm extremely human. "
