Women In Physics

I spoke to someone who said she was struggling with finding #WomenInPhysics #SciComm. So let's start a thread!

It's not only about Einstein and Hawking! Don't forget these women who made serious strides in physics: t.ted.com/H3v8WIA

Hey y'all anyone know of any pre-PhD astro research programs for non-US/non-EU students? A lot of folks have contacted me asking.

Heyyyy everyone it's that time of the year again where we're highlighting #BlackInAstro Profiles for #BlackHistoryMonth. I'm looking for all my Black astronomers, geoscientists, aerospace engineers, and other members of the space family! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

We want to make #physics more inclusive and open to all. Your say in how we do this is so important. Visit iop.org/yourvoice and make your voice heard before next Monday. #IOPYourVoiceMatters

We want to make #physics open to all. Tell us what needs to change, and how we can do this by filling out our 15 minute survey. Visit iop.org/yourvoice and have your say before 21 December. #IOPYourVoiceMatters

Potential postdoc applicants and especially those from URM in STEM - please apply to our independent GRAPPA fellowship @GRAPPAinstitute : deadline 20/12/2020

I wanted to be an astronaut and my plans got flipped all around. Now I build rockets for @NASA and my mission Artemis will be headed into space. @NASA_SLS we are ready to soar. #iamanlsuengineer #iamablackengineer #blackandphysics #hearingimpaired #hardofhearing

When I'm asked to give advice to students, the #1 piece of advice I give is this: Just because a subject is hard for you (math/science/etc), that doesn't mean you're "not cut out for it." You don't have to be a natural at your chosen subject. It's okay if you have to work hard.

All in STEM looking for jobs, particularly those from minoritized groups, please shoot your shot in this thread! What/where is your DREAM job? I want to lend my network to you. TAG, BRAG, and GET THAT BAG! Employers, pay attention to this thread! Go! 👇🏿👇🏿👇🏿 #ShootYourShotSaturday

I love this. It’s always time for pi...I mean pie . What was something you all did this year that had nothing to do with school/work?

Don’t know who needs to hear this but: Your mental and physical health are FAR more important than any research project, publication, class assignment, meeting or teaching responsibility in grad school. YOU as a person are what matters.

Tomorrow we're hosting THE Hank Green @hankgreen LIVE on my science web series, @stembassy! Get ready for some serious fun. What an awesome way to close the season with our last celebrity guest. See you tomorrow, Hank!

“Arianna’s long path to the stars,” a feature about @UCIrvine astrophysicist Arianna Long. “You have the freedom to seek joy in your life and in your work, and if that’s by studying the stars, then do it!” @astroarianna said. ps.uci.edu/news/2283 @UCIPhysAstro | @cbcrr_uci

Today in 2013, astronaut Sally Ride was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Dr. Ride was the first American woman in space and was passionate about #STEM education and gender equality. Learn more on our blog: s.si.edu/2m3X9t0 #BecauseOfHerStory

Dr. Héloïse Stevance - (she) Today’s #FancyScientist is an astrophysicist and “Carl Sagan but make it goth.” Dr. Héloïse Stevance AKA @Sydonahi on Twitter studied the 3D shape of Core Collapse Supernovae & researched the evolution of massive stars to better understand how they..

It’s #LGBTQinSTEMDay! I’m a queer trans woman working on quantum computation, physics and computer science. I am also an activist. I am celebrating my queerness at a few events today and at @QTurnWorkshop next week👇 Love yourself, be proud 💖🏳️‍🌈 #QueerinSci

Happy #LGBTQSTEMDay everyone! All sexualities and all genders are valid ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Today is International #LGBTQSTEMDay ! A day for us to celebrate the LGBTQ+ people who study and work in science, tech, engineering and mathematics!
