Do I know anyone who has been accepted for a Lise Meitner fellowship or a Marie Curie Fellowships for postdocs? Plz rt and help a gal who's not applied for fellowship grants before out!!

[Minorities in STEM @MinoritySTEM]

Today I thought I'd start by talking about community. One of the initiatives I have been a part of and is very dear to my heart, is the African-Caribbean Research Collective @ACRC_UK

So proud 2 be part of @girlsingeosci. I created a film

In this #TakeAction, we have shared what some of our leadership members will be reading and doing while we #Strike4BlackLives, and as we keep up this work. This list is by no means comprehensive, but rather a place to start. (THREAD) 1/ https://t.co/NUr0JWJtC5

[Dr. Krystal Tsosie, PhD, MPH @kstsosie]

Yá'át'ééh abíní! Good morning in Diné bizaad (Navajo language)! In case you do not already know me, here are details below. But in conjunction with #DecolonizeDNA Day and #DNADay, I wanted to introduce what it means to "decolonize #DNA" & its impacts. https://t.co/qzceoXV6zO 1/

[Soraya Chemaly @schemaly]

Here’s a story re earlier tweets: Women academics seem to be submitting fewer papers during coronavirus. You may think, well, everyone is being affected. However, men academics are submitting up to 50% more than they usually do https://t.co/8CgUqw5R9R

[Amy Erica Smith @AmyEricaSmith]

😶There is a growing gender gap in submissions. I suspect it isn't ONLY about child care. I suspect that women also redouble emotional and cognitive labor during crises. They check in with family, neighbors, friends, the elderly. They figure out new health care issues.

[Florence Schechter @floschechter]

This has been a really hard decision, but the right one.

I worked for a long time to get the Vagina Museum open, and now after barely six months, we are closing doors.

We are really going to need your help during this time.

Thread, and please RT.

[Vagina Museum @vagina_museum]

ITS TIME FOR SHOUTY SLANG SUNDAY!!!! You asked for it and we're giving it to you!!! For every £5 donation or more to our winter appeal between 6-8pm (GMT) tonight we will be shouting a slang word for THE CLITORIS!!! https://t.co/JDOrZ4Oeu8

[dr alex @thermoflynamics]

The Home Office are trying to deport @DrFuraha_Asani to the DRC - a place that she's never once set foot in

Due to this, she's been unable to work for a lot of the last year and - even with a pro-bono lawyer - needs to raise £6000 to have a chance at a final appeal

Please share

Twitter hive mind: looking for awesome women scientists of colour or science-adjacent people (ideally life sciences) for a panel event on amplifying voices & stories of women in science. Evening of 20th March in London. Any ideas???

HAPPY #WomenInScience DAY!!

If you're a Women of Colour in STEM with less than 1000 followers, drop us an intro below & we'll amplify!
