DisabledInSTEM

Recovery may have slowed me down, but it hasn't stopped me. Proud to have completed the @ReclaimingSTEMI seminar series. Grateful for the chance to keep learning, exploring career paths, and reminding myself that progress doesn't always happen on the timeline we expect!

I miss what this place used to be…

Behind every barrier is a scientist whose ideas matter. Disabled chemists share their experiences, and how we can build labs where all talent thrives #InclusiveLabsRSC #DisabledInSTEM Read Disability-Inclusive Laboratories report: rsc.org/policy-and-cam…

Happy international day of persons with disabilities. Don’t forget that invisible disabilities exist and don’t see them less than visible ones. Invisible disabilities include: - neurological disabilities (autism, ADHD, etc.) - asthma - diabetes - chronic pain, such as fatigue

Order by midnight to receive by Christmas!

♿This #InternationalDayofPersonswithDisabilities, we celebrate breaking barriers in STEM education. Despite making up 27% of the population, people with disabilities represent only 3% of the STEM workforce. sciopen.com/journal/2352-4… #SciOpen #DisabilityInclusion @Tsinghua_Uni

On #InternationalDayofPersonswithDisabilities, we thank @AlyssaPaparella & @DisabledStem for creating community and raising accessibility awareness! As a cancer biology PhD candidate at Baylor, she's proving disabled scientists belong in research.

Less than one week until the application deadline! #DisabledInSTEM

Please share @MSDCINational @SACNAS @ABRCMS @AcademicChatter

@broadwaybabyto @DisabledStem "But u were able to last week so why not today?" "If u have meds, why aren't they making u better?" "If you're in bed all day, doing something at night shouldn't be a problem." "If all those specialists can't fix u maybe u need to see psych!"

8 people signed up already! :)

The #DisabledInSTEM Mentorship Program has almost an equal number of applicants for mentees and mentors! Just sad to see interest extremely low this year. I’m not sure how I could reach people better so please share within your networks! 💜

“If you were that sick you would be dead.” “If it were that bad you would get help.” “If you can post on social media you’re fine”. Disabled people are constantly subjected to “if” statements from people who have no concept how bad it can get & how little help is available
