The #ExoMars Rover, hopefully to land on #Mars in 2022, is dedicated to crystallographer Rosalind #Franklin. She used X-ray crystallography to study the structure of DNA & viruses, her research on coal porosity lead to the development of carbon-fiber reinforced materials 💎🚀

Excited for our next outreach activity with Gr.4 / 5 students Saskatoon Public Schools - a combo of Physical Regions of Canada & Rocks and Minerals curriculum connections. This one is special because my daughter has a keen interest to help - since it’s her classroom! #GirlsInSTEM

Breaking it down to the “what does a geologist do” and “explain the rock cycle” level - I always appreciate the prep work needed to explain things when visiting classrooms! #questions

Thanks to Willowgrove Saskatoon Public Schools for having us provide a virtual afternoon on Physical Regions of #Canada, natural resources in SK & intro to Rocks and Minerals. We had a great Q&A session. These thank-you cards make me melt 🥰 #GirlsInSTEM #WomenInSTEM

Since 1970 #EarthDay has aimed to diversify, educate and activate support for the environment! Mark it by speaking with someone about how important geosciences are to environmental understanding and protection. Spread the word, inspire thought, and help protect our planet 🌍

“My parents bought me a chemistry kit and I loved it,” she said. “I went on to study chemistry when I went to university. My path started at a very young age, and I was just very adamant that I loved chemicals and science and microscopes. It was like a playground to me.” #STEM

Humbled to share perspectives & real life examples of the pursuit of happiness, esp in these crazy times for those with careers and young families (equally applicable to other forms of hyperbusyness!). Embrace a manageable amount of chaos & find your unique flow :)
