#TDOV #TransDayOfVisibility I'm profoundly disappointed with UCL for our institution's disregard for trans rights & abandonment of its engagement w Stonewall HOWEVER I am proud that majority of UCL staff & student communities stand up for trans rights 🧵1/ Out@UCL UCL LGBT+

Happy #TDOV2022 🥳 Celebrating today by opening the Trans Lives exhibit I organised for Out@UCL and the UCL Trans Network! And feeling comfortable enough in my skin to wear a skirt again for the first time in 6 years (: Gender is a journey and I don't think mine will ever end!

A while ago, I shared about a course I was designing, "Untold Stories in Geosciences: Social and Historical Contexts of the Development of Geosciences as a Discipline." Key course materials are now available via National Association of Geoscience Teachers Teach the Earth portal (1/5) 🧵 serc.carleton.edu/teachearth/cou…

NEWS FLASH! It’s not a dislike of “hard maths” that puts girls off studying or pursuing careers in maths + physics. It’s outdated and damaging stereotypes that close doors on many talented girls and women. Ready to hear about some of our most inspiring women physicists? 🧵
