Observacions i context

Since ancient times, women have practised medicine, even if, as was the case with Agnodice in Athens in the 4th century BC, they had to disguise themselves as men in order to do so. During the 10th century, women were not forbidden to enter medical school, and figures such as the Ladies of Salerno appeared, including Trotula of Salerno, who was able to practise and write on medical subjects under her own name. Later, access to medical studies was once again forbidden to women, until Elisabeth Blackwell managed to enter medical school, becoming the first woman to graduate in medicine in the United States in the 19th century. Virginia Apgar belongs to a tradition of women, including Hildegard of Bingen, who have practised medicine with extraordinary brilliance, sometimes against their own time. 
Virginia Apgar was a contemporary of Jenny Rosenthal Bramley, a Russian physicist, known for being the first woman to obtain a doctorate in physics from an American institution, and Rita Levi-Montalcini, the physician who discovered the first known growth factor in the nervous system.
