Whether for #REF or as a funding requirement, how do you demonstrate #ResearchImpact? @AgnesJ, Annie Holmes and Becky Wolfe, write about the best strategies https://t.co/3DmpNo51Q9 @LSHTM
In my intro neuroscience class this semester I provided a reading assignment about systemic racism in neuroscience. I’m sharing here a very long thread about this experience, what I learned & some of the responses from students. There were approximately 98 students enrolled. 1/13
The dream is to create a premier platform for #AfricansInSTEM to showcase their science in their own voice. And also create visible role models for young aspiring scientist by showing people the diversity of STEM from people who LOOK like them.

@rebeccyannie Thanks for highlighting this Rebecca. Utterly depressing conclusion and totally agree that the results are more likely to relate to the culture of science and its implicit biases and unhelpful work ethos.
Finishing off some communications training for workshops with @INASPinfo on this rainy Wednesday. Trying to keep it as simple and practical as possible.
Interviews with guests involved in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).The purpose of the podcasts is to highlight people who are in the STEM field and give them the opportunity to tell their stories about their research or projects.

Congratulations @GilesYeo ! I feel incredibly lucky to work with you at @bsneuroendo . Great to see recognition not just for excellent research helping to destigmatise body weight but for communication and engagement too.
Some personal news folks. I have appointed an MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) in the Queen’s Birthday 2020 Honours List, for services to ‘Research and Communication and Engagement’. Who'da thought eh?
BREAKING NEWS:
The 2020 #NobelPrize in Chemistry has been awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna “for the development of a method for genome editing.”
Thinking of all my friends in the Caucasian Community at this difficult time.
Remember that all the suspicious looks you'll inevitably get over the coming weeks come from a place of ignorance, not hate.
I know these extremists don't represent your proud, peaceful culture ❤️
