First PhD[edit]

"She is the first African woman with a PhD in mathematics. "? Not so simple - see list of African Women PhDs at http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/HistTopics/African_women_1.html#Guidy-Wandja where she is number 9. First at her Paris Univ, possibly first at Abidjan (she seems to have done two PhDs)? See https://www.mathunion.org/cwm/people/gallery/josephine-guidy-wandja . Needs checking.
