Abstract

Abstract The article offers an interview with journalist Eulina Cavalcante de Almeida, editor of the woman’s section of the ABC Paulista newspaper News Seller in the 1960s. Almeida was responsible for introducing women’s and scientific issues to the paper’s female readers. Science formed one of the foundations of her writing as she offered her women readers scientific information, especially in the area of health. In the 1960s, the level of scientific literacy in Brazil rose and Almeida’s work dovetailed with this trend. The woman’s section of News Seller played a valuable role in science communication in the ABC Paulista. (AU)
