And then @CaitlinCeciliaC lifted the Roger Wadsworth award for best talk πŸ‘β­οΈ This is for final year #PhD students is particularly special for me as Roger was one of my PhD supervisors (a long, long time ago!) so I’m sure he’s smiling also wondering why no myography featured!

Any opportunity to celebrate the amazing women I work alongside is enough to convince me to get in front of the camera (even if I do look like I’ve just fallen out of bed 😬). As a #WomeninSTEM we must call out where barriers exist to make things more equitable moving forward πŸ‘©β€πŸ”¬

In the light of Trump's attack on LGBT rights and his ban on DEI initiatives, if there are any informal groups in US chemistry departments/companies who would like to hear one of my webinars discussing #LGBTSTEM issues, I would be happy to arrange. [1/5] bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czx8…
