So the first thread I want to do is tech/applications that have made my science easier and more accessible. Some of them are paid (not always accessible), but I'll try to offer a free version that I've used that may not be as great but worked for me. 1/

Applying to graduate schools is expensive. @QueerinAI and oSTEM are teaming up to run the Financial Aid Program to alleviate the burden of application and test fees for queer STEM scholars. International applicants are welcome to apply! bit.ly/38TE3fY
