Interested in: equality; @Athena_SWAN; the arts; narratives both fictional & lived; conversation. All views my own- employer a lot less interested in cats.

[Protect Kamala Harris ✊ @DisavowTrump20]

This is Colonel Nicole Malachowski. A 21-year veteran of the Air Force, she is the first woman to fly with the Thunderbirds and flew 26 missions in Iraq. Trump has removed all mention of her from federal websites.

RETWEET if you stand with @RealMalachowski against Trump!

[Opera with Opera News @operamagazine]

The ⁦@guildhallschool⁩ of Music & Drama’s composition professor Toby Young is to receive a £1.4m Future Leaders Fellowship, awarded by UKRI, to fund his research project Immersive Opera, which aims to develop new ways of staging and creating opera for the digital age.

How incredibly cool is the opera/extended reality project our brilliant @theothertoby has won £1.4m for https://t.co/Q0wCq2Gseu

A reminder that the scientist who discovered coronaviruses (cold + COVID viruses) was a woman from the East End of Glasgow who left school at 16 and couldn't get funding to go to uni.

🚨URGENT UKRI UPDATE

On Wednesday we gave @UKRI_News 48hrs to reverse the suspension of its Equality, Diversity & Inclusion panel.

It has not done so.

We are therefore calling on all UCU members with any voluntary positions at UKRI to resign.

Post below once you've resigned.

I'm still recruiting for my PhD Research, for:
- Black British PhDs who completed their studies part time.
- Former PhD students who withdrew from their programmes.
If you/someone you know falls into these groups, I'd love to speak with you! More info at https://t.co/MgC0nUiCkB

Hello hello 👋 #IWD2023 is nearly here, and so are companies' cut-and-paste platitudes. And once again we're bringing you the data to see whose support for #InternationalWomensDay is genuine, and who's still got work to do.

Here's a reminder of how it works ⬇️ (1/8)

Books by female authors studied by just 2% of GCSE pupils, finds study https://t.co/K8UBwRiJIn

[Prof. Heejung Chung @HeejungChung]

Dads!! It's not what you say, but what you do!! This paper shows that rather than the #GenderRoleAttitudes parents hold, how much #housework #fathers do *absolute and relative to that of moms, and time spent on #childcare that shapes children's GRAs.

Removing charitable status from private schools would raise £1,700,000,000.

That's almost twice what's needed to fund my #FreeSchoolMealsForAll Bill, giving all primary school pupils a healthy meal every day.

Should we protect private school tax breaks or feed hungry kids? 🤔

@jlush2 Of course it is- get two kittens and call them Dave and Colin

[Anna Grey @AnnaMGrey]

I know university web pages are pretty much designed for students and student recruitment, but please, if you really want to collaborate with other institutions and non-academic partners, can you just add the contact details of your research office staff?

The decision to overturn abortion ruling #RoeVsWade is an unconscionable attack on the health and rights of women and girls in the United States. We are shocked that the future of so many people has been dictated by politics rather than evidence-based opinion. (1/2)
