Did you know #FlorenceNightingale invented modern infographics? Her famous 1850s #CoxcombCharts proved that more soldiers died from disease than battle, changing medicine forever. At #StThomasHospital, she taught nurses to visualize data - a practice still used today. Every pandemic chart or hospital stat shows the world through Nightingale's eyes, 170 years later #KCLWoman
#FlorenceNightingale started working at #StThomasHospital in 1860 with an aim to apply science to nursing. Today at #KingsCollegeLondon, her statue in the hospital’s hall observes student nurses as they study her #CoxcombCharts that prove sanitation saves lives. Her wartime hygiene manuals are kept in the archives, while the labs maintain her evidence-based standards #KCLWoman
