I do science. Mostly marine science and conservation. M.E.M.

I also enjoy geeky stuff.

I know invasive carp are a big problem, but on Twitter? Now it's just getting ridiculous. #carp

[Peter Gao @PlanetaryGao]

Something to consider as you read about the big Venus news today: there is an unfortunate disconnect between what we do as scientists and how "science" is communicated to everyone.

A thread.

Today is #BlackInAtmosphere during #BlackinGeoscienceWeek, i.e. my time to shine☀️

Though I’m an atmospheric scientist/meteorologist by training (@tamu_atmo), I frequently find myself at sea for my research, thanks to @tamu_ocean and now @Scripps_Ocean!

What’s up Twitter Family! I’m Tyson, a PhD candidate in organic/chem bio @Yale/@UCBerkeley where I design novel chemical tools for long time-lapse live cell nanoscopy! This acct is for my YouTube where we, amongst other things, show how fly scholarship is! #BlackinChemRollCall

[Halan @HalanMX]

Hi #BlackInChem 👋🏾 I'm a chemical engineer by training & a chemist by choice. I'm entering the last year of my PhD, I work on synthesising polymer membranes to prevent adsorption of contaminants during water filtration so I'm #BlackinOrganic. #BlackinChemRollCall @BlackInChem

[Christie Towers, PhD @ChristieTowers]

I’m a post doc @CUAnschutz studying #Autophagy in cancer to understand why cancer cells become addicted to this recycling pathway and if they can develop alternate mechanisms to circumvent autophagy. I am a cell biologist and a mom to 2 crazy boys! #BlackInCancerResearch

@mosquito_chaser Newer hybrid truck. Colleague parked on a hill in the woods just off the "path". It's in park and parking break on and we exit. Then it starts rolling down the hill. Somehow it missed every tree in its path before coming to a stop. Had to get towed out with a backhoe.

Honoured to be joining this team of talented photographers! Thank you for the work you do to create positive female role models and nurture new talent in the world of nature photography

Hi everyone! I’m Justine Hudson, a recent graduate from @umanitoba. For my MSc degree, I studied stress in beluga whales and bowhead whales throughout the Canadian Arctic.

CONGRATULATIONS....DR. Michelle Obama. Since her husband has been out of office, and her children out of the house, Mrs. Obama decided to complete her PHD in law. The most educated 1st lady ever, is a Black Queen! ✊🏾RESPECT✊🏾

PSA: Please, if you must have balloons to celebrate, don't release them. Dispose of them properly. This is not something I wanted to come across while doing field work. There are many alternatives to balloons for celebrating as well.

[Christine Wilkinson, PhD 🌈 @ScrapNaturalist]

Part of my current research funded by @InsideNatGeo involves looking at how wildlife navigate fences and other infrastructure. This is a classic example of what I like to call "downward-facing #hyena"! #BlackInSTEM #BlackInNature
