Tomorrow is International Day of Women and Girls in Science! To commemorate the occasion, I had fun asking some students from Howard County, Maryland what they were curious about - see how @World_Wildlife's scientists answered!

5 hours, 24 minutes.
21st Grand Slam title.

One incredible match. One incredible champion.

[Jessica Leung @JessLeung10]

@75percent_steph The feeling is even more triumphant when you've chased the bus down and pounded on the window in desperation because the next one comes in 41 minutes and in 20 degree weather that is fatal

❄️🐼 New year, new Xiao Qi Ji! In 2021, our giant panda cub was a little wary during his first encounter with snow. This morning, the 16 m.o. plowed face-first into the fresh powder, rolled around and relished 2022's first #SnowDay. His belly-sliding skills are 10/10! #PandaStory

Idea for how to #promoteinclusion: at your next staff retreat, have people share one thing they like about themselves and one thing they're afraid of. Inspired by
@vivek_murthy's interview w/the mighty @BreneBrown

Excited to have brought my personal & professional worlds together to make this podcast come to life! Thanks @BenGoodman and @Mission_Ready for amplifying @World_Wildlife's work in reducing food loss waste and turning "cafeterias into classrooms!"

[Mission: Readiness @Mission_Ready]

If you were recently moved from watching @netflix's series "Maid," I highly recommend this episode of @CuriouswithJVN that really expanded my knowledge on abuse and the many forms it takes

[Getting Better with Jonathan Van Ness @betterwithjvn]

Sensitivity warning: This episode discusses intimate partner violence. We hope that centering an episode on this important topic helps to bring awareness to survivors’ experiences, and the incredible work that Sonya Passi and @freefromorg are doing. https://t.co/vf9pBHELhG
