Answer:

Anandibai Gopalrao Joshi (31 March 1865–26 February 1887) was one of the earliest Indian female physicians. She was the first woman from the erstwhile Bombay presidency of India to study and graduate with a two-year degree in western medicine in the United States.

As was the practice at that time and due to pressure from her mother, she was married at the age of nine to Gopalrao Joshi, a widower almost twenty years older than her. Gopalrao Joshi worked as a postal clerk. He was a progressive thinker, and, unusually for that time, strongly supported education for women.

Appreciations and honors she received

Queen Victoria sent her a congratulatory message. The Philadelphia Post wrote, “Little Mrs Joshee who graduated with high honors in her class, received quite an ovation.”

Dr Joshi lived a mere 21 years but achieved so much in that brief span that a crater on Venus has been named in her honour.

The Institute for Research and Documentation in Social Sciences (IRDS), a non-governmental organization from Lucknow, has been awarding the Anandibai Joshi Award for Medicine in honour of her early contributions to the cause of advancing medical science in India

On March 31, 2018, Google honored her with a Google Doodle to mark her 153rd birth anniversary.
