Well, I just wanted to highlight the difficulties for women to make a name for themselves in science even today. I don't know if Bialik could have become famous if she had remained a neuroscientist and obviously it has been easier for her to do so as an actress (ironically playing a neuroscientist in The Big Bang Theory), despite several publications.
Science and technology remains even today, unfairly, a domain of men, even though without women we would not even have Bluetooth or WiFi..
Oh for sure, I didn't mean to imply that there's not massive amounts of inequities in stem. I just don't know if she is the best example considering her lack of experience in the field.
