Dr Sophie Prosolek (she/they) 🧬

Last night I press-ganged a mass spec engineer at a live music night, just to interview the heck out of him for copywriting purposes. This is the monster that content marketing for #biotech has turned me into 🤠

@DisabledStem @Tech_Networks Ty!! :)

@InfraRedRum @Tech_Networks Congratulations!!! 💜

Low res and knackered but v happy to finally share that I’ve been promoted to Senior Science Writer @Tech_Networks! Celebrating with a G&T 🍸 P.S Threads heard about this first 😎 #ScienceTwitter #AltAc #Threads

Would love to add that as a disabled person there have been so many times I’ve questioned my chance of a career I feel so privileged to work, and to love what I do every day Bipolar disorder does not have to mean the end of a career in STEM. Far from it #DisabledInSTEM

The future of vegan and alternative protein foods remains so uncertain - even though we recognize the need to diversify and adjust our food supply chain I found this one SO INTERESTING to write👇 @Tech_Networks #Science #Foodie #Vegan shorturl.at/xCF28

@InfraRedRum @aalayna23 I'm a nonbinary conservation biologist passionate about human wildlife coexistence and inclusion in STEM. Idk I'd call myself inspirational 😅 but I AM passionate about showing that scientists can come in all backgrounds and intersectionality and breaking down stereotypes.
