When the University City Science Center launched its Innovators Walk of Fame in 2013, all of the innovators were men. This yeNewImagear, it's adding 10 women.

"We wanted to ensure that the Innovators Walk of Fame reflects the diversity of the local, regional and global communities in which the Science Center operates," Stephen Tang, the center's president, said in a statement. 

The Walk of Fame, which will be located at Innovation Plaza along 37th Street between Market and Chestnut, honors revolutionary thinkers in fields ranging from medicine to technology to community engagement.
