New paper alert - created as a follow up from repping the @defendresearch.bsky.social team at @chashub.bsky.social Charleston In Between last summer. Check it out and share your thoughts - let’s see what’s happened at this upcoming CIB. A year feels like a very long time these days…
Another Latitude panel is now available for all to watch on our YouTube channel. @funsizesuze.bsky.social, @drpragyaagarwal.bsky.social, @elinorcleghorn.bsky.social & Subhadra Das discuss the biases present in historical and modern day scientific research youtu.be/WXU8V8eL4s8
Hey Martin, thanks for coming to my talk, and so pleased you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for doing this. It means a lot. What a community!
Keeping it 100 on the land (geology), the sea (oceanography), the sky (atmospheric science), SciX pledges allegiance to your Open, your FAIR, your API! Explore a broad, connected research landscape with in-built data-viz tools scixplorer.org #TheFateOfSciXplorer #IYKYK

Back in June I cornered a bunch of members of our awesome Advisory Board to ask them a few questions. Here they are telling me what @scixcommunity.bsky.social means to them, for their research disciplines and communities. What a lovely bunch, and what a gorgeous office we have 🥰
Congrats new #ChemNobel Laureates, and brilliant collaborators! Can you spot another famous #NobelPrize winner? Explore how metal–organic frameworks (#MOFs) are transforming research in #EnvironmentalScience, #SpaceExploration, and #SustainableMaterials at scixplorer.org
Truly 😂🥰
Me jumping on BlueSky for the first time in months to find Stu and scream “MOFSSSSS!” at him. Wish Fraser was here to see it ❤️
A natural evolution of ADS, SciX brings its powerful capabilities into new domains. Expanded coverage, intuitive search, smart recommendations, and tools for collaboration. SciX makes research more discoverable, connected, and accessible than ever before. https://scixplorer.org/scixblog/scix-launch

#ABSWawards
The ABSW Awards Ceremony 2025 was held on Wednesday, 9 July 2025, at @rigb.org.
If you missed the event hosted by Dr Suze Kundu @funsizesuze.bsky.social, scicommer and journalist, check the pictures here! 🔗zurl.co/MzfxM
Cheer the winners! zurl.co/m636b
To clarify, I haven’t further diversified my learning, so neither of these events are mine - but I’m excited to be watching the other speakers around my talk! See you all at the LAST EVER @qedcon.org next month!
It's been energizing talking with folks about #censorship and how we can combat it! Thanks to @rouhiroo.bsky.social, @alicemeadows.bsky.social, and @funsizesuze.bsky.social for getting the message out! #DefendResearch #Action #Academia #SciSky #ScholComm
It’s beginning to look a lot like #NineLessons 🤩
The first of our panels from Latitude is available to watch for Patreon subscribers and paid Substack subscribers now! This is 'Trust Me, I'm an AI' with @drkevinfong.bsky.social, Prof Elizabeth Black and @funsizesuze.bsky.social. Subscribe at patreon.com/cosmicshambles
Aw, thanks! Was fun to make. And so frustrating too! Talking about culture change in front of grid girls was LOLZ
That’s so lovely to hear! The data shows improvement but as culture change is slow, sometimes you can’t observe it as clearly. I’m really pleased though, and hope our little film can encourage a few more folks to get involved too.
🥰🥰
How about an evidence-based documentary about women in engineering and motorsport? We launched it last week, and it was a wild year of filming and finding the right narrative, but also got to support some amazing UCL engineering interns who make up a HUGE part of the story! youtu.be/AcOLcB9lXw0?...
Super excited to hear from my fellow panellists 🤩 #CharlestonInBetween
It’s all kicking off at @chashub.bsky.social #CharlestonInBetween here in Berlin - plates smashing in response to the opening session 😅 I’m joining the next panel on Libraries Under Attack. Should I wear PPE? Who has risk assessed this event?! 😂
Just two days left for Shambles Patreons to enter and win a double pass to Latitude!! Or sign up now to enter! patreon.com/cosmicshambles CC @robinince.bsky.social @helenczerski.bsky.social @seismatters.bsky.social @funsizesuze.bsky.social @soozaphone.bsky.social @garwboy.bsky.social @
NEW DOCUMENTARY TRAILER: Only 15% of the engineering workforce worldwide is made up on women, and in the motorsport industry that drops to an unbelievable 3%. In this new documentary we take a look at why that is and how it's changing. Out July 10th presented by @funsizesuze.bsky.social
Off to #ChemUK to host The Big Debate, midday on Stage 2. I’ll be wringing all the best insights and expertise from a stellar panel of chemistry-related folks from across academia, publishing, funding and industry to ask what we need to do NOW to secure a future where the UK’s chem scene can thrive.
An honour and a pleasure to judge a category in the @absw.bsky.social awards again this year - and with my hero and friend @philipcball.bsky.social, no less! Congratulations to all entrants and those shortlisted. See you all at the Finals at @ri-science.bsky.social in July. Grab your tickets now!
