1/4 We’re excited to announce the debut of “I Am… A Scientist”, a new #scienceoutreach initiative that explains how science is done in different fields and who scientists really are! We hope to show kids that, regardless of their background, they truly belong in science 🧵

1/6 Our next “I Am… A Scientist” videos are here! Learn about #astrophysics, incl. exploring the universe’s history & using telescopes to analyze explosions millions of lightyears away! Special thanks to Dr./Prof. Renée Hložek & Adaeze Uchenna-Nwadike, our guests #ScienceOutreach 🧵videos below 👇🏼

Look into this new, cool science outreach initiative from SR UofT (St. George)! Fun video inspiring kids to check out science #scienceoutreach

Changing my name to Dr. Cheung because I want to normalize sharing your achievements without criticism. I'm an Asian woman, I finished my PhD, I work in research, and I'm PROUD! #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

That virtual PhD defense look: business on top, pajamas on the bottom, and Bill Nye socks for the inspiration.

Love this! #WomenInSTEM npr.org/2021/08/05/102…

The 76th United Nations General Assembly has already started! The positive progress on the Sustainable Development Goals has been reduced by COVID, so we have to work together that much more to get back on track. First livestream: youtube.com/watch?v=kuEY7H…

RT! 🌱 My group has some new projects starting and the lab needs to grow! Want to work on climate change impacts on plants? Do physiology, bioinformatics, and/or molecular biology? In the field or growth chamber? Email me if interested for grad or postdoc positions 🌱

Happy convocation day to all the @uoftengineering grads (including me!). I'm honoured to have delivered the congratulatory messages with Chris Yip during the virtual ceremony and have this awesome pic of me and my #algae coloured thesis! ❤️🦠

Interested in growing algal biofilms for commodity products? My latest open-source paper discusses how we can (and cannot) control the composition of non-sterile mixed-species algal biofilms. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

My first ever work anniversary! Thanks ALT TEX for the cake and the opportunity to do sustainable bio research! 🌏👕🦠

Happy Pride Month! Made my fav rainbow dessert for my colleagues at Velocity. Rainbow jello with only 4 colours because I didn't have enough time for more 🌈 Here's to making workplaces safe and inclusive for all!

Thanks Rogers for giving us a day to reflect on our relationship with internet and call service. It's like Earth Day but we can't call 911, contact our loved ones, or pay for anything. See y'all at the next one!

Wishing everyone a deep day of reflection today. #NDTR #NDTR2022

Thanks Waterloo library for sharing this list of books to read to start my journey of reflection and learning about the part of Canada's history that was glossed over in school. #NDTR2022

Today I learned "costliest" is a real word and it just feels wrong.

ALT TEX is hiring! We're looking for biopolymer chemists with scale-up experience, material scientists with bioplastic experience, and people looking for part-time admin work! Come for the science, stay for the fun people :)

ALT TEX is getting bigger and better everyday. I'm so happy to be part of this team and these amazing accomplishments. Watch out for us in a store near you!
