“Canopy Meg,” as Lowman is called, is a pioneer of canopy ecology. She is a senior scientist at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco and has spent 30 years working to map biodiversity in forest canopies. She is also an advocate for girls and minorities in science. “I feel a true sense of passion to serve as a role model and inspiration for all women in the world,” she says. “I try to be a good role model for the young women I encounter, so maybe they can gain advice and avoid some of the hurdles that I encountered.”
