The advice on why you should do science here isn't just for women. Working class? You are under-represented & unseen, break that glass ceiling! From the developing world? You are tough & independent, get out there & show them. LGBTQ , carers, minorities... The key is 1/2

a good mentor to show you the ropes, otherwise the ones that get the grants will be those who have a better understanding of the system rather than those with the best science. Science is hard, but it is full of wonderful discoveries just waiting to be found. Go for it. 2/2

Calling all artists 🧑🎨 and everyone 🧑🔬👩💻🧑🏫👩⚕️🧞♀️🧙♂️🧟!
We're receiving proposals for our #BrainArt 🧠 exhibition—it's a nice opportunity to go “Beyond Borders” and showcase your creations.
It doesn’t have to be big or fancy, it just has to be yours!
(RTs are very much appreciated)

I'd like to submit a proposal for an edited collection of studies with working-class people in HE with the intention to include voices from academics, students, Prof services, admin, ancillary workers & others. Would anyone be interested collaborating/contributing? #workingclass

End of a research integrity week: going through some submitted manuscripts to remove those from papermills while my brain helpfully provides ambience by playing "Don't you want me" by the Human League.
