I had a lot of fun combining my interest in science and my love of TTRPGs to work on this project with a great team of collaborators!
Penn Science Policy and Diplomacy Group@PennPSPDG

Start the new year off right with PSPDG’s first ever #scicomm TTRPG! This D&D 5E adventure, A Misfolding Misfortune, was written by @D_Boufidis, Freddy S. Purnell, Tammy Ray, @ddbsidi23, and @AmandaN_Weiss, and covers information about neurodegenerative disease #TTRPG #dnd #STEM

Race doesn’t have a biological basis, yet many people still believe in biological race. Amanda Weiss (@AmandaN_Weiss) reports on a study that suggests that in-class discussions 📚🗣️ surrounding the topic can start to erode the incorrect belief that race is biologically based 🧠

@jpflores_31 The @UPennSciencePol blog isn't strictly biomed- or policy-focused, but there are posts that overlap with one or both of those. They might be open to a collaboration, though I'm no longer writing for it, so I'm not sure. pspdg.com/blog

Thinking of starting a biomedical sciences science policy blog! BUT, I don’t want to re-invent the wheel… anyone know of anything like that?
