Her family was wealthy, and often held parties where Dán would meet many different people from various stations in life.
Family wealth is often ignored in various scientists' biographies. It makes it easier to do science without the pressures of having to think about where the next cheque is going to come from.

Generally, a lot of the article has the feel of rewriting the past in order please a modern political discourse.
Exhibit one:

What discourse would that be?

I don't see DEI mentioned in the article anywhere.
