I don't use Twitter enough anymore to justify having two accounts. It was an interesting experiment started 10 years ago to see if having a professional only profile was a good strategy. Just feels duplicative now. Follow me @rkerestes if you'd like to stay in touch.

It's always an amazing opportunity to gather with folks from all over the country and talk public policy. Thanks to @NCSLorg and everyone who attended the #NCSLsummit in Indianapolis.

Science_is_US@Science_Is_US

Thrilled to have connected with several state legislators about the role of #science in policymaking and elevating #PeopleofScience at the #NCSLsummit this week. Looking forward to Louisville next year!

As a @McCourtSchool trained MPP working in science policy - I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am to see Dr. Fauci's appointment. And how jealous I am of the current students who get to learn from him. What's the policy on alums auditing classes? ;-) #HoyaSaxa

McCourt School@McCourtSchool

The McCourt School is honored to welcome Dr. Anthony Fauci to the @georgetown community!👏 Joining as a Distinguished University Professor at @GUMedicine's Division of Infectious Diseases, he will also hold an additional appointment at the McCourt School. georgetown.edu/news/dr-anthon…

We live in a world of such deep misinformation that respected scientists - leaders in their fields - are stalked and harassed by those who have fallen prey to lies. And the science tells us myth-busting doesn’t work. We need to get to folks before the misinfo sets in.

Ugh I just was stalked in front of my home by a couple of antivaxers taunting me to debate RFKJr. Of course I was looking my Sunday best in our brutal heat wave. What is it with people? Well at least Houstonian’s now know I support the team…#GoTexans

Today I co-signed an opinion piece focusing on the impact of #STEM on #NM's economy. The majority of the state's #STEMProfessionals do not hold a bachelor's degree. STEM provides good high-paying jobs to folks regardless of their level of education. abqjournal.com/2605373/stem-w…

One of the things marketers should know by heart is to cater to your hard support and ignore your hard opposition. Target must clearly know where their hard support lies. I haven’t seen their research but my brand strategist gut is that it’s not people who hate LGBTQ+ folks.

Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦@cmclymer

If you're a corporate marketing officer concerned over what's happening with Target, let me make something abundantly clear: you will never appease anti-LGBTQ extremists. They don't want *some* concessions. They want all of them. But there's a colder truth at play here. (thread)

I recently spoke to #WyomingPublicMedia about how the majority of US #STEM professionals don't hold a bachelor's. We have to break down the educational attainment stigma and value all paths and labor--our economy and individual prosperity depend on it. wyomingpublicmedia.org/natural-resour…

Is it just me or is Twitter particularly glitchy today? Can't tweet on some browsers, my tweets aren't showing except under replies.

Fascinating. A growing body of evidence supports putting employees' well-being first is a great way to increase productivity & output. And doing so by shortening the workweek and offering remote work options is also better for the planet. That seems like a win all around.

Planet earth loves the 4-day workweek, too @entrylevelrebel on.inc.com/cX5wejk

Fun fact: #Florida is a #STEM state. STEM jobs grew by 12.4% - twice the national average - over the last 5 years. And 36% of the state's GDP is directly attributable to STEM. New data from @Science_Is_US here: scienceisus.org/state-spotligh…

.@KNBFL volunteers pulled an estimated 2500 lbs of trash out of the #StMarysRiver near the Dee Dee Bartel boat ramp Saturday morning. And that was just at one site working with St Mary’s Riverkeeper on the annual clean-up. #DoBeautifulThings #AmeliaIsland

Social science research has told us that myth-busting doesn't work. But how do we prevent conspiracy theories from taking hold? Interesting new paper that could shed some light on what we can do.
