My first ever publication is my @NatRevMater piece about the #DisabledInSTEM Mentorship Program nature.com/articles/s4157… and it truly feels like a huge accomplishment to be recognized for all of my work towards inclusion in STEM!

I am excited to share that I passed my Ph.D. Candidacy exam! I'm looking forward to continuing my Ph.D. research here in the Allen Lab at Wayne State. #STEMintheD #womanInSTEM #disabledInSTEM

We've just had to release more virtual tickets for this brilliant event on Weds 1st Nov: Reflections from a Cyborg: Telepresence teaching in Higher Education #Education #Disability #Robotics #COVID19 #CovidIsntOver @DisMatters @crippingbreath eventbrite.co.uk/e/reflections-…

last year i challenged my 1y science comm students to think about their labs in the context of disability and UDL. we made a list of recommendations, and this fall some of them are being implemented!! more inclusivity in stem w/advocacy activities 💙👏🏻 docs.google.com/document/u/0/d…

Whew, that's a wrap! Thanks to all who attended the in-person Inclusive SciComm Symposium - with over two dozen sessions, it was a whirlwind weekend. We've still got one more virtual day to come! Catch the keynotes at ow.ly/j4e550PZlIm. Let's do it again in 2025! #iscs23

It's time to recruit for the 2024 #DisabledInSTEM Mentorship Program, which is our fourth year! Mentee form: forms.gle/tryM66LaKGM5Lb… Mentor form: forms.gle/ncCcoNxYkJhNLY… Applications are due December and placements will occur by mid-January! Reach out with any questions!

It's not okay to offer funding where the recipient uses their own money first and is reimbursed later. This barrier puts serious pressure on those in less privileged positions. Many struggle (silently) or lose out completely. Reduce inequity by offering resources up front.

Last day left for this batch of #DisabledInSTEM #SpookySeason merch! bonfire.com/i-feel-it-in-m… Thank you for those who have supported it so far! 💜

A reminder that we are still looking for people to feature as part of the Faces of Advocacy campaign next month. If you’re passionate about #AcademicMentalHealth and would like to share a mental health message, please complete the details at the link below. tinyurl.com/yv7739sr @OpenAcademics @ThePhDPlace @THINKAcademia @DragonflyMH @DisInHigherEd @DisabledStem @academicvoices

Those who teach field labs in marine biology, how do you incorporate accommodations for mobility issues? We have field labs that include rocky intertidal, salt marsh/mudflat, and a boat trip @NSilbiger @jebyrnes @RandiRotjan @DrSeaBove @EmilyBRivest @kj_nickols @sierrapmunoz

Anyone have best practices and/or practical tips? @DisabledAcadem @DisabledStem @DisInHigherEd

Happy to launch some #DisabledInSTEM merch for #SpookySeason, but it's perfect for year-round! bonfire.com/i-feel-it-in-m… #Halloween
