Dr Natasha Stephen

I made it to the other place - same handle - come find me!

We're funding 15 projects across the UK to help inspire the next generation as part of our Space for All scheme. 🚀 @GeolSoc in London is one of the recipients - hear about how the funding will help boost their work! 👇 Read more 👉 gov.uk/government/new…

We are delighted to announce that we have been awarded funding from the UK Space Agency (@spacegovuk) to deliver education and outreach activities! We can't wait to inspire the next generation of earth and planetary scientists throughout 2024 and 2025 🪐☄️

We're looking for a Planetary Sciences Education Assistant to work with us to create educational & careers resources for planetary geosciences! This new role is funded by @spacegovuk 🚀🪐👩‍🚀 Find out more/apply online: geolsoc.org.uk/bhrecruitment

Dino Discovery Day 1 at Burlington House is complete 🦖 Open to everyone (and FREE!), visit our Megalosaurus skeleton and take part in hands-on dinosaur activities. Drop-in on the 14th, 16th and 24th Feb between 10am-4pm, no booking required geolsoc.org.uk/megalosaurus

@RyanTScott @GeolSoc @theAGU @AW_McKinnon You too, sorry we didn't get time to chat properly!

@NatStephen @GeolSoc @theAGU Nice to have met you albeit briefly yesterday after your SciComm workshop event with @AW_McKinnon 🎉

Come see @GeolSoc at #AGU23 in San Francisco! Megan and I are here for all things Policy, Science, & Education, whilst our Publishing House colleagues are launching a new joint book series with @theAGU - we're here all week, so come say hello!

Reunited with @iamhazelgibson of @EuroGeosciences this morning with a host of other fantastic #SciComm experts to kick off #AGU23 with our workshop - both in person & online!

Today marks the launch of our new "GeoFutures" conference series, starting today with #DigitalGeoscience GeoFutures looks to tackle 21st century challenges with geological solutions, bringing together interdisciplinary scientists, engineers, policy makers, & visionaries...

For those of us that have had to fight, choose to fight, & are still fighting, this UKRI announcement comes as a massive blow. I don't have useful words yet as I am still processing, but this is a massive step backwards, & one I know our community won't take lying down.

@i_jayas @ProfRachelGaN @UKRI_News 😭

@ProfRachelGaN @UKRI_News I, just... I can't... I don't know. What just happened?!

@ProfAtchison @SocietyEconGeol @geochemsoc @EAG_ @GeoSocAustralia @EfgInfo @theIUGS @AAPG Would be great to look at the data on this if available - hybrid costs as % of venue costs, & number and demographics of participants before/after hybrid options removed.

@ProfAtchison Agreed! Also tagging other geo societies with international meetings to be part of the conversation: @SocietyEconGeol @geochemsoc @EAG_ @GeoSocAustralia @EfgInfo @theIUGS @AAPG

Really great to see @NatStephen and be a part of #GSA2023. I'm curious though, how many more would have had the opportunity to participate if the hybrid option were still available? Science must be accessible and inclusive. @AccessibleGEO

Today marks the start of Earth Science Week, running until 14 Oct and celebrating the theme ‘Geoscience Innovating for Earth and People’. With a busy week of activities in the Society and beyond, keep an eye out for events you can get involved in! ow.ly/5ZV450PU1VH

@Geolominologist @ProfRachelGaN @KEHplantsci @Volcanologist @seis_matters @apaterliny @GeolSoc @AccessibleGEO @DiG_UK_IAGD @GeolSoc and @DiG_UK_IAGD work very closely together, and have done since their inception in 2018... geolsoc.org.uk/Geology-Career… geolsoc.org.uk/DiG-UK-launch-…

OK #Science twitter - do your thing! We have written an open letter to Conservatives strongly opposing 'kicking woke ideology out of science' rhetoric & show they do not represent science. Please distribute widely! Screen readable text + signature form at hull.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/edi_in_science

@British_Airways @LouiseShell There are no BA staff here, and no hotels available otherwise we would have booked them ourselves six hours ago. There is one angry agency woman just shouting at people because her shift should have finished at 22.30.

@LouiseShell I'm sorry we couldn't reply earlier, Louise, and that your flight has been delayed overnight. Our airport staff should be arranging accommodation, but you can make your own arrangements and submit a claim for reasonable expenses to Customer Relations britishairways.com/content/inform…. Beth

So @LPItoday #LPSC is back in The Woodlands for 2024 despite promises to move it, and not only is TX not the best place for an international meeting, the conference hotel is $500/night!?! #LPSC2024 hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2…

@ErrantScience @GeolSoc And here's the link: youtube.com/live/cjUs3eeV1… #CartoonGeology

Huge thanks to Matthew of @ErrantScience for giving our @GeolSoc public lecture this evening on how to #CartoonGeology, including a nod to previous president De la Beche's early scientific cartoons of the 19th century! Missed the talk? Catch up on our YouTube channel soon...
