First of 2 sessions today @UofGlasgow inspiring young chemists and also showcasing microscale chemistry for teachers.

What a fantastic day hosting the UK final of the @RoySocChem Top of the Bench competition at @EdinburghNapier. Great organisation and support from @RoySocChem staff, @EdinburghNapier staff and @ENUTeacherEd students.

We are so excited to invite you to the ‘I belong in Chemistry’ event at The University of Edinburgh! A series of talks by Chemists with disabilities, sharing their stories and journey through chemistry.

@jane_essex I'm so excited for you! It's also most excellent! You must be so proud 👏

This morning’s post brought this. Three years since I decided that I really could write a book on this subject, it now exists in hard copy! It owes its existence to a myriad of supporters, to whom especial thanks must go.

@jane_essex Assertive Jane, always decisive and Assertive

If a thesis acknowledges your role in sticking by someone despite their indecisive moments, does that mean you’re bossy?? Asking for a friend, obviously.

@Rebecca_Salty @RoySocChem Email me and i'll post you a new pair :)

I might have made it to Barcelona in one piece, but the same can’t be said for my favourite @RoySocChem lab goggles that have been with me throughout my entire PhD 🥲 #chemtwitter

First of two Chemistry Teacher and Science Technician Networking events today at @StrathChem with support from @STEMedscot Very nice to see everyone in person. Some excellent discussions with some fantastic facilitators.

Fantastic hands on Advanced Higher Chemistry project ideas session put on by @StrathChem @patrickthomson at the Chemistry Teachers and Science Technicians Networking Event today. Lots of awesome ideas for projects.

@MissSempleChem @BrochSci @FraserburghAcad It was great to meet you all! You did so well on the day, so proud you made it to the final. See you next year!

Such an achievement for these four to even make it to the Top of the Bench final! Unfortunately no prize, but such a great experience. Getting into the university labs for some experiments was their favourite part! @BrochSci @FraserburghAcad

@SNHSChemistry @stninianshigh Lovely to meet you all! Congrats again for getting to the final

Ms Hastie & Mr Power are accompanying our fabulous four to the Top of the Bench final in London. They left on their travels this morning & the competition takes place tomorrow. Thanks to both members of staff for organising and massive good luck to our Chemists 🤞🏼 @stninianshigh

@AlloaScience You did fantastically folks, It was an utter pleasure to have you. See you next year!

Unfortunately we never got the result we were hoping for. It is a massive achievement to get to the final and the group did themselves proud! #Ambition #Resilliance #TeamChemistry

Well deserved @seerymk congratulations 🙌

We're having a great Scotland themed day: @fidgetslisa is at the Scottish ITE Professional Learning Conference with @RSC_Scotland @IoPScotland @RoySocBio @DrAllan12's latest Escape the classroom article is up: edu.rsc.org/ideas/escape-t… #educationscotland #ScotEdChat #scied

📣 There’s still time to register your students for the UK Chemistry Olympiad 2022. Taking part will give them the chance to see chemistry from a different perspective and maybe even discover that their future lies in science 👉 rsc.li/olympiad2022 #Education
