How many female Nobel Prize winners are there in the history?
I don’t know the situation in other fields, but at least I know that there are only ten females have won a Nobel Prize in Physics or Medicine. And this is what I read in an article, Ten Female Nobel Laureates in Physiology or Medicine in the History.
The Nobel Prize and Prize in Economic Sciences have been awarded to women 49 times between 1901 and 2015. Only one woman, Marie Curie, has been honoured twice, with the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics and the 1911 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This means that 48 women in total have been awarded the Nobel Prize between 1901 and 2015.
