Awesome opportunity for anyone interested in strengthening their #scicomm skills! I was part of the 2020 workshop and am so thankful to have learned so much from an incredible leadership team. Feel free to DM me if you have any question about the conference!
Delta Tree Initiative is an awesome USA based non-profit working to help change girls' misconceptions about women in STEM and their own STEM potential - we had some really great questions today from the girls, such an important project! #GirlsInSTEM#STEM
Had a great talk with school girls from Alabama this morning about the #vaccineconfidence, infamous misinformation figures and STEM :) looking forward to chatting more tomorrow at the academy :) #stem#GirlsInSTEM#girlsinscience
Looking forward to chatting with middle/high school girls for DeltaTreeInitiative, USA @RileyLovejoy in a few hrs about STEM field, career opportunities, social media and misinformation spread #stem#stemcareers#education#misinformation
Undergrads! No one told me so I'm telling you. Did you know you can get flown out, offered lodging & PAID to do summer research (even w/ no experience)?
First, I want you to learn these two terms:
REU=research experience for undergrads
SURF=summer undergrad research fellowship
Excited to announce the publication of “Give students the confidence to ‘be wrong, loudly’ in online classes” in THE Campus. I hope it will encourage/enable educators to promote fearless engagement in classes, both online and in person.

Regret buying that goldfish? Give it to a friend, not to nature! Goldfish can get huge when released into the wild, taking resources away from native species. Help protect our native species by keeping pets out of the wild. Photo courtesy of Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper.
I had the opportunity to participate in this earlier this year, and highly recommend it to anyone hoping to sharpen their #scicomm skills! I attended virtually and was blown away by how beneficial it was for me. I even got to use some of what I learned on an upcoming publication!
Working on an article for MATCh Engineering about how to apply to graduate school in STEM and looking for contributors from a wide variety of STEM disciplines. Please DM me if you would be willing to share what you know about applying to grad school in your field! #firstgen
(1/n) Thrilled to share latest pre-print from lab - open imaging tool we have been working for the last 3 years "PlanktonScope V1 & 2" - modular (100x cost reduction) platform to enable citizens/sailors to study the world's largest habitat - our oceans! https://t.co/WpntyLFP4Q
I just found out #WorldHemipteraDay exists and I’m so excited for a new excuse to share Hemiptera facts! Here are a whole lot of Notonectids (backswimmers) to celebrate! Notonectids are predators of #zooplankton (etc.), great flyers, and can leave you with a nasty “bite.”
