Women In Physics

Here to connect #WomenInPhysics from all around the world & to share our stories. ⚛️ We promote women, diversity & inclusion in physics.

[Women In Physics @WomenInPhys]

I spoke to someone who said she was struggling with finding #WomenInPhysics #SciComm. So let's start a thread!

[TED Talks @TEDTalks]

It's not only about Einstein and Hawking! Don't forget these women who made serious strides in physics: https://t.co/m5gy3bAqol

[STEP UP @STEPUPphysics]

HS Teachers! STEP UP has a new paid opportunity to learn about best practices for equitable classrooms & how to implement the STEP UP lessons in the classroom. All while also joining a team of nationwide teachers! Application due April 2. Apply Today! https://t.co/z8Tg2tHD4L

Hey y'all anyone know of any pre-PhD astro research programs for non-US/non-EU students? A lot of folks have contacted me asking.

[☄️Ashley🔭Lindalía☄️ @That_Astro_Chic]

Heyyyy everyone it's that time of the year again where we're highlighting #BlackInAstro Profiles for #BlackHistoryMonth.

I'm looking for all my Black astronomers, geoscientists, aerospace engineers, and other members of the space family!

We want to make #physics more inclusive and open to all. Your say in how we do this is so important. Visit https://t.co/Wm5IUdsScR and make your voice heard before next Monday. #IOPYourVoiceMatters

[Institute of Physics @PhysicsNews]

We want to make #physics open to all. Tell us what needs to change, and how we can do this by filling out our 15 minute survey. Visit https://t.co/Wm5IUdsScR and have your say before 21 December. #IOPYourVoiceMatters

Potential postdoc applicants and especially those from URM in STEM - please apply to our independent GRAPPA fellowship @GRAPPAinstitute : deadline 20/12/2020

[K Renee Horton,PhD @Reneehortonphd]

I wanted to be an astronaut and my plans got flipped all around. Now I build rockets for @NASA and my mission Artemis will be headed into space. @NASA_SLS we are ready to soar.

When I'm asked to give advice to students, the #1 piece of advice I give is this:

Just because a subject is hard for you (math/science/etc), that doesn't mean you're "not cut out for it." You don't have to be a natural at your chosen subject. It's okay if you have to work hard.

[Raven Baxter, Ph.D. @ravenscimaven]

All in STEM looking for jobs, particularly those from minoritized groups, please shoot your shot in this thread! What/where is your DREAM job? I want to lend my network to you. TAG, BRAG, and GET THAT BAG! Employers, pay attention to this thread! Go! 👇🏿👇🏿👇🏿 #ShootYourShotSaturday

[Women In Physics @WomenInPhys]

I love this. It’s always time for pi...I mean pie . What was something you all did this year that had nothing to do with school/work?

[Dr. Angry Grad @GradSkoolStrugs]

Don’t know who needs to hear this but:

Your mental and physical health are FAR more important than any research project, publication, class assignment, meeting or teaching responsibility in grad school.
YOU as a person are what matters.

[Raven Baxter, Ph.D. @ravenscimaven]

Tomorrow we're hosting THE Hank Green @hankgreen LIVE on my science web series, @stembassy! Get ready for some serious fun. What an awesome way to close the season with our last celebrity guest. See you tomorrow, Hank!

[UC Irvine School of Physical Sciences @UCIPhysSci]

“Arianna’s long path to the stars,” a feature about @UCIrvine astrophysicist Arianna Long. “You have the freedom to seek joy in your life and in your work, and if that’s by studying the stars, then do it!” @astroarianna said. https://t.co/KFDNf9Rlur

Today in 2013, astronaut Sally Ride was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Dr. Ride was the first American woman in space and was passionate about #STEM education and gender equality. Learn more on our blog: https://t.co/W0mUMCc3FT #BecauseOfHerStory

[Stephanie Manka (Schuttler), Ph.D. | Scientist @FancyScientist]

Dr. Héloïse Stevance - (she)
Today’s #FancyScientist is an astrophysicist and “Carl Sagan but make it goth.” Dr. Héloïse Stevance AKA @Sydonahi on Twitter studied the 3D shape of Core Collapse Supernovae & researched the evolution of massive stars to better understand how they..

It’s #LGBTQinSTEMDay! I’m a queer trans woman working on quantum computation, physics and computer science. I am also an activist. I am celebrating my queerness at a few events today and at @QTurnWorkshop next week👇
Love yourself, be proud 💖🏳️‍🌈
