Loved this session and especially the fascinating research study!!! Listening to creatives in film @sxsw this weekend made me think so much about how similar the ideation process is with science, and then this session went into that and I was like YASSSS.

An incredible org & staff that deserves to be more than a DEI checkbox for institutions. #philanthropy needs to do better & provide long-term sustainable support. Thank you to the team @500womensci for your crucial work making #STEM more inclusive. science.org/content/article/…

I remember when the word #advocacy was considered taboo in #STEM; today it is necessary. Communication about #science is part of the scientific process, we need to embrace it at all levels, including policy. Apply for this program! #scipolicy #scicomm secure.ucsusa.org/a/2022-sci…
