Give it up for #WomenInScienceDay! Check out the amazing page #UniqueScientists on hiatus and read about all the amazing #UniqueScientists: uniquescientists.com 👩‍🔬🙂👨‍🔬 #academictwitter #ecrchat I had such fun writing my profile at Amsterdam airport: uniquescientists.com/2019/06/22/uni… ☺️🌿🌍

Meet @KendyllMartin, a neuroscientist Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the USA 🇺🇸who images neurons in the brain to measures changes in communication. Lasting effects of childhood concussions inspire her research. What fuels your interests? #WomenInSTEM #DisabledInSTEM ✨ow.ly/FLie50yk6fx✨

Those almost Friday feels mean it’s #UniqueTBT day! 🎉 Let’s look back to Dr. Joaquín Navajas Acedo, a developmental biologist in USA 🇺🇸 originally from Spain 🇪🇸! Joaquín loves creativity and as a kid loved learning about all critters! ✨Read more: ow.ly/t00830qhtME

Meet Michael Bale, MSc 🏳️‍🌈🇵🇷, a post-bac researcher from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 now @NCICCR_HIVDRP in the USA 🇺🇸studying HIV-host interactions! Outside of lab, you can find him playing Ultimate Frisbee or viola in the NIH Philharmonia! #QueerInSTEM #LatinxInSTEM ✨ow.ly/f8tw50yk6ru✨

Have to say, a few years ago I would have been mortified by this. But embracing my diversity instead of running from it has been the most freeing thing for me. I also can't emphasize how much of an impact @DrMFKearney has had on me as a person and scientist. #UniqueScientists

Meet Simone Blomberg, whose early love of lizards 🦎 led to a PhD in ecology! Now at the U. of Queenland🇦🇺 she develops mathematical models to describe macroevolution. You can also find her strumming bass guitar or meditating! #WomenInSTEM #QueerInSTEM ✨ow.ly/RXJd50yk6OV ✨

Friday is almost here so happy #UniqueTBT everyone! 🎉 Today let's look back at our July highlight, Adam Netzer Zimmer (@acnzimmer), a bioarcheologist and forensic anthropologist who loves singing! 🕵️‍♀️💀🎤 ✨Read more!: ow.ly/ZE5D50yrzOC✨ #QueerInSTEM #LGTBInSTEM

Meet Christina Fitzsimmons! She's a postdoc @NCIResearchCtr studying how changes in the cell metabolic rates influence gene expression & RNA modification. Outside of lab, you can find her hiking, playing board games, or reading sci-fi! #WomenInSTEM ✨ow.ly/5H8N50ytjnO✨

Say hi to Dr. Cynthia Fadem (she/her)! She's a geology prof Earlham College studying geoarchaeology, environmental science, & geoscience education. When not studying our past she plays violin in her community orchestra! #WomenInSTEM #QueerInSTEM #BiInSci #STEMatSLAC ✨ow.ly/nbvs50ytjum✨

Meet @NoraSci! She's a PhD student UChiPhysicalSciences studying how planets move around other stars. When not unraveling the mysteries of the Universe she's probably baking, training for her next half-marathon, or hanging out with her bunnies! #WomenInSTEM ✨ow.ly/m12B50ytjJI✨

My, oh my has the time flown! It's #UniqueTBT day! 🎉 Let's take it WAY back to our THIRD highlighted scientists, Liza Brusman (@lizardwithaz)! Liza recently started her #PhD at CU Boulder 🦬, is a proud queer Jewish woman, and knows several martial arts! ✨ow.ly/Nus750yxRWU

Let's meet @chacker414, a conservation biologist Duquesne University studying how Chinese snow leopards adapt to high altitudes! This tall, pink-loving, feces-dissecting #WomenInSTEM also loves to practice Mandarin, play lacrosse, & share science thru #scicomm. ✨ow.ly/oliX50ytjOh✨

Say hi to Jake Shurba, M.Sc., AWB®, a wildlife disease ecologist at Clemson in the USA🇺🇸 whose love of science started with Jurassic Park! Jacob loves wildlife photography & writing for his blog, The Art of Infection (artofinfection.blogspot.com) #FirstGenInSTEM ✨ow.ly/9Jop50ytk4B✨

Meet @girlbossdoinsci, a food biotechnologist from India🇮🇳 hoping to pursue at PhD in Animal and Food Science in the US one day! Rachna loves writing when not in lab, having published poetry while hoping to write her own book soon! #WomenInSTEM ✨ow.ly/dr4Z50ytkqU✨

Let's meet Roni Lenius, a self-described "colorful scientist" from Greece 🇬🇷 now in the UK🇬🇧 working to remove dyes from water to reduce pollution from the textile industry! Eleni also loves makeup, skincare, and inspiring young #WomenInSTEM! ✨ow.ly/BZ6x50ytkyE✨

Meet Amanda Hyman, Ph.D., whose love of the outdoors led her to study how to ensure stable social-ecological systems & optimize conservation budget use. It's perhaps unsurprising that Amanda loves rock-climbing in her free time! #WomenInSTEM #QueerInSTEM ✨ow.ly/VUyj50ytkS8✨

Starts today! Show your support for #BlackBirdersWeek and those in our community that are #BlackandSTEM. Continue to show that #ScienceIsForEveryone!

I'm looking for guest speakers for fall to speak on barriers that women, particularly women of color, face as they pursue careers in science, and strategies for support for my #ProjectGPS scholars & small campus community #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #phdchat

Good news, everyone! ✨1) Our page now has 500+ followers✨ -This may not seem like much, but for a group that started 1 MONTH AGO, we are so happy to meet you all! 2) We have scheduled the first General Meeting for next 🌈Sunday 10/10 at 1 PM EST. 🌈 -More info on this soon
