Rosalind Elsie Franklin (25 July 1920 – 16 April 1958) was an English chemist and X-ray crystallographer whose work was central to the understanding of the molecular structures of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), RNA (ribonucleic acid), viruses, coal, and graphite. Although her works on coal and viruses were appreciated in her lifetime, her contributions to the discovery of the structure of DNA were largely recognised posthumously.

I haven't read through the thread, so I'm not sure if anyone mentioned Ada Lovelace. She wrote and published the first algorithm ever, in 1843, specifically tailored for implementation on a computer. Thus, she is often called the first ever programmer.
