Very disappointed, & yes, angry, to hear of males trying to discourage young females from an academic career in STEM. That "academic science is not for women" is a tired, boring old stereotype & miles from the truth. Keep the fire in your bellies. Science needs you. #WomeninSTEM

Another loss for #ScienceTwitter #AcademicTwitter. There is still good science & thoughts of scientists here ... it is getting harder to wade through to find them. #LinkedIn however feels it's getting stronger for scientists & their messages. I need to learn more about #IRL.
Good bye artist formally known as Twitter. I can no longer support this platform. It is a shame because it has been very helpful to my career, but time to move on! See you on LinkedIn or even better, IRL 👋

An Acknowledgement of Country is more than just words that are said at the start of a meeting. This can be carried out by anyone & is a statement that shows awareness of and respect for Traditional Custodians and their long & continuing relationship with the land you’re on 🧵3/4
