Absolutely delighted that this STEM Gamechanger initiated event is taking place @TheCrick in October! A symposium for final year undergrads and postgrads working in STEM from ethnic minority backgrounds. Do register! https://t.co/B3I8VsMXQT

I loved the #ImperialLates panel this evening (hosted by the brilliant + cheeky @jesswade) on how to make tech + AI less sexist, and after that I found out you can make fabric from 🍍! (I also enjoyed wearing my @sailorhg jumper all day, thanks for the photo @PatrickSelf) 💖

Give some of the fantastic posts at @scientistshuman a read (and maybe submit something to be published there!)

Every woman is valued and supported on #IWD2019⁠ ⁠: particular shout out to the disabled women - like @ralunney - kicking ass in academia 😍✨💖♿️

Massive congratulations to our founding member @Thisismeonline (and @pocsquared founder, too) who's just landed herself a fully-funded PhD place @UniofNottingham
Can't wait to see what she does next :-) 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀💛👩🏾‍🔬

This International Women's Day, we want to celebrate some of the women at The Turing. You could be forgiven for thinking there aren't many, or any...

Check out the #TuringWomen hashtag for individual quotes from these amazing members of the @turinginst on #IWD2019 😍👻👾💪👩🏾‍💻👩🏻‍🎓👩🏼‍🔬

[The Alan Turing Institute @turinginst]

...but you'd be wrong. Throughout today, you will meet a selection of some of our finest Research Fellows, Professors, Doctors, enrichment students, engineers, and data scientists. We asked them what inspired them to enter this field. #BalanceForBetter #IWD2019

Why do I care so much about getting a copy of #Inferior into all schools? Because I don’t want to just tell girls they can do anything. I want them to read it, be empowered, and join our fight for equality. #thisgirlcan https://t.co/JB3Uc6JuU8

[Dr Hannah Williams @hannah_physics]

Happy #IWD2019 everyone. To paraphrase: Here’s to strong women. May we ally them, may we amplify them, may we celebrate them. 💪💪

[STEMGamechangers @STEMGamechange]

Big love to the #STEMGamechangers organisers: @hannah_physics @Sarah_Morgan_UK @jesswade @Jessieontherun Dev (not on twitter) and @kirstie_j. Awesome to work with you all to bring so many amazing people to the @turinginst in September 2018. 😍🥰🤩🥳😎 #IWD2019

(Mini update - there’s very little signal on this train. My grand master #IWD2019 RT plan is not going well 😬😬😬)

[STEMGamechangers @STEMGamechange]

Gamechangers!! This is @kirstie_j swooping in LATE on International Womens Day #IWDay2019 to say WE LOVE ALL the incredible women and non-binary folks in our community.

Send @STEMGamechange (tag in a reply etc) your favourite tweets from today for me to RT

😔 Can we stop spending so much money on campaigns (based on v. little evidence) to ‘inspire’ girls to study science and instead;
-invest properly in science education
-tackle institutional + systematic bias against women + minorities
-improve access to shared parental leave

@TanaDJoseph @EstherMensah16 @PaleBlueSam So exciting!!

[Dr. Tana Joseph @TanaDJoseph]

Our @STEMGamechange group is working on "Check Yourself", a tool for organisations to diagnose the health of #DiversityandInclusion in the workplace.
We're looking a for input from a social scientist on how to best structure our survey. DM for details. #DiversityinSTEM
