[AWiSH @AfricanWomenSci]

We celebrate this recognition of @CatrionaWaitt who works with @AfricanWomenSci to break down barriers and transform culture to make STEM careers a realistic goal for young women from diverse backgrounds. @MentorshipMuii @medicalwomenuk @STEMWomen @WomenScienceDay

The average UK manufacturing company is currently made up of 85% men & 15% women (@MichaelPageUK).

The #CEDAW Committee has urged the UK to enhance women’s #STEM participation & #education, which would strengthen implementation of Art. 11 on equal employment opportunities. 🏭

I finally found out what this is for!
The database was created, in part, so nobody has an excuse to NOT invite a #woman scientist to their talks/panels/seminars etc.
People still say:
"Oh, but we don't know any women scientists in this field."

[NASA Solar System @NASASolarSystem]

Dr. Lynnae Quick of @NASAGoddard wondered if these “ocean worlds” are common across the galaxy. Quick and her colleagues conducted a mathematical analysis of several dozen exoplanets and found that more than 1/4 of the sample could contain oceans. https://t.co/H93RPhkr6T

Those days it was still under Mysore University. She went on to do her MSc in Physics, also from  Central College, and was the only woman in her batch. She was awarded the Silver Medal in MSc (Physics).

This interview with @ScienceMagazine ended up being much deeper, much more transparent than I anticipated. Thank you, @k_langin, for providing a platform for me to share my heart.
