Inspiring panel discussion on women in science, but only 14 men signed up. Key tip from @jkwillenbring is to motivate men to watch @PictureaSciFilm (now available on Netflix!) Please like this if it will be you!

[Erin Harvey @ErinLHarvey]

I watched #PictureAScientist last night and really recommend! Very interesting and thought-provoking. I'm looking forward to the panel discussion organised by @CUWaterResearch and @CardiffDA on Thursday. You can watch the documentary on Netflix and sign up using the link below

👏 Congratulations to Professor Ann Taylor, Postgraduate Taught Director @CUmedicengage who has been named as a role model in academic medicine by @TheBMA. 👏

Happy Intl Womens Day #IWD2021 :) But words are not enough. Nice messages about women are pointless unless you actually change things to improve equality. If you don't know how, perhaps start by donating to those who do: https://t.co/rxB11KTfda Let's have action, not platitudes.

The concept, whose development in the ‘70s excluded the effects of systemic racism, classism and other biases, took a fairly universal feeling of discomfort, second-guessing in the workplace and pathologized it, especially for women. https://t.co/3C86ZskzPK

[Dr Jess Wade liked it here once @jesswade]

Henrietta Lacks’ (HeLa) cells have had such an extraordinary impact on medical research that it is remarkable that Black women are not mentioned in a single 🇺🇸 undergrad biology textbook.

#dayofscience I am a marine biogeochemist at Cardiff Uni and today I am going to highlight my daily activities from dawn until dusk. Start of the day, coffee and getting the kids ready for school. As I am working from home, jeans and my new favourite t-shirt. #womeninstem (1/12)

I am so delighted to be announced as the 2020 Woman of Distinction by @Jewish_Care. Its such an honour and I feel so humbled to have even been considered, let alone named. Thank you so much! 🥰
