Super proud of my Grandpa being featured in @Forbes!

For my whole life he has been teaching me about the dangers of climate change and our responsibility to fix it, incredible to see a 91 year old working so hard to find a solution with what little time he has left ❤️

[Luke_Steller @steller_luke]

Beautiful article from my friend @cogitosjourney capturing the magic of @DurbachSteven visiting the @AussieAstrobio! Steve embodies the intersection of art and science, and his practice is challenging and incredibly moving! #SciArt #scicomm

[FutureStemGen @FutureStemGen]

We had a fantastic time with Chifley College students of Dunheved, Shalvey, Bidwill and Mt Druitt (all @nisep01 partners) extracting bush medicines, making dye sensitised solar cells and using coding and sensors. It was a great @FutureStemGen day.

Praxical director @steller_luke presented at the @rzsnsw careers event at the @austmus, exploring what careers in science communication and engagement look like!

[Praxical @PraxicalProject]

Praxical’ co-founder and director @steller_luke talking to @BenNewsome_ from @FizzicsEd about all things #SciComm and comedy!

[Luke_Steller @steller_luke]

Had a great time chatting with @BenNewsome_ from @FizzicsEd about science engagement on his podcast! I’ve brought @FizzicsEd out to the @LithgowSciHub in the past and they are exceptional educators (and podcast hosts)!

[Praxical @PraxicalProject]

Praxical director @steller_luke will be hosting the careers in science communication session at the @rzsnsw careers event at the @austmus next Saturday, if you’re in Sydney come down for an amazing day!

Last STEAM Room Science Comedy Show we had the incredible @DrMichellePower from @mqnatsci and @QueersInScience perform to 500 people at @Syd_Comedy_Fest!

It's so inspiring seeing an Assoc Professor show the humility and curiosity to try something daring and learn new skills!

[Praxical @PraxicalProject]

Awesome feature of Praxical’s STEAM ROOM comedy from @UNSWScience! Anyone out here interested in turning their STEM stories into a comedy show and to perform in front of thousands of people, apply below!

[UNSW Science @UNSWScience]

1/3: In 2022 a group of intrepid scientists ventured into uncharted territory. They trained in comedy with the STEAM Room Science Comedy Program and performed their science stories as stand-up at the Sydney Comedy Festival and Splendour in the Grass.
How did they go?⬇️

[Luke_Steller @steller_luke]

Thanks @InspiringNsw for promoting our STEAM Room Science Comedy Program.

Applications are now open to receive training to turn your STEM stories into stand up comedy, and perform it live on stage with @DoctorKarl!

[Luke_Steller @steller_luke]

Amazing write up from @InspiringNsw about the new @LithgowSciHub and our Bushfire Recovery STEAM engagement funding that I am lucky enough to be project lead for.

Such a joy to be working with @rich_evans, @Amelie_Ecology, and may others on this!
