Established a studentship to fund women's scientific research overseas.
In 1936, Edith Anne Stoney founded the Johnstone and Florence Stoney Studentship through the British Federation of University Women. Dedicated to the memory of her father, George Johnstone Stoney, and her sister, Florence Stoney, this endowment aimed to support women pursuing scientific research abroad. This initiative reflected her lifelong commitment to the advancement of women in science and education, ensuring future generations of female researchers had the opportunities she was denied.
