Vera Kistiakowsky (b. 1928) is an American research physicist, teacher, and arms control activist. She is professor emerita at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the physics department and Laboratory for Nuclear Science, and is an activist for women's participation in the sciences. Dr. Kistiakowsky is an expert in experimental particle physics and observational astrophysics. Her professional career began in the nuclear chemistry field, later moving to nuclear physics, and then particle physics, and finally astrophysics.〔 She received her A.B. in chemistry from Mount Holyoke College in 1948 and a PhD in chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley in 1952. She began her career at MIT in 1963 and was the first woman appointed MIT professor of physics. She is the daughter of physical chemist George Kistiakowsky, who taught at Harvard and served as President Dwight D. Eisenhower's science advisor. She married Gerhard (Jerry) Emil Fischer, a fellow student at the University of California in Berkeley, in 1951, and has three children.〔 ==Early Life== Kistiakowsky's early education in the sciences was greatly influenced by her father. He made special arrangements so that she could spend summers in Los Alamos with him where he was working on the Manhattan Project. During this time she was also attending Mount Holyoke College where "she excelled in chemistry and math, just like her father. 'I thought very highly of my father,' says Vera. 'He told me very seriously that I should find something to do that would support me and not rely on getting married and finding someone who would support me.'"
