Trans & Non-Binary Physicists

Hello, twitter! We are an online community for transgender and non-binary physicists -- from enthusiasts to professors! -- to socialise, network and support one another. To join our Discord, just shoot us a DM!

Happy Transgender Day of Visibility!🏳️‍⚧️ Today we celebrate our wonderful Trans & Gender Diverse communities & acknowledge that there are still many challenges that we face daily. To begin the day, read about how #TDoV started: 19thnews.org/2021/03/histor… #TransInSTEM #QueerInSTEM

Happy #TransDayOfVisibility! i'm proud to be a trans person in physics and thankful to everyone in @AstroObsNCL and beyond who supports and values me for who i am and to everyone at @transphysicists who give me strength every day #TransInSTEM #TDOV2024

Happy #TransgenderDayofVisibility! Take a moment to be proud of yourself and the trans people in your life. (1/2)

For #TransAwarenessWeek, head to our blog as Dr Clara Barker reflects on the intersection of science, identity, and the influence of anti-science rhetoric on both: royalsociety.org/blog/2022/11/c… @ClaraMBarker

Happy #TransAwarenessWeek to all! It's a great week to be aware of our very snazzy poster, so please share it with any trans and/or non-binary people in physics or physics-related fields who might benefit from our little community 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈💛🩶💜🖤

Happy birthday ISNBS!! 🎂
