Female scientist in front of slide displaying some of the female pioneers of neuroscience
Had the pleasure to return to the @oldoptheatre.bsky.social this week to give a talk on the forgotten female pioneers of neuroscience in the run up to international woman's day. #womeninstem #neuroscience #neuroskyence #thisiswhatascientistlookslike

Talked about careers in science—& the beauty of the microbial world (&yeast!)—with 120 6th graders in Maine yesterday. It surprises me that one of their main takeaways was that scientists don’t all look like Einstein. But how cute was this drawing one child did of me?! #thisiswhatascientistlookslike
Dr. Falk Seidel Organometallische Chemie "Eine Behinderung zieht sich für viele Betroffene deutlich durch alle Aspekte des Lebens. Dass sich Behinderung individuell sehr verschieden auswirken kann, macht dies im Umgang nicht einfacher. Uns eine faire Chance geben und uns inklusiv am Leben teilnehmen zu lassen, ist, wenn gewollt, möglich und oft auch nicht schwer.- Auch in der Chemie!"
Jojo P. Physikalische Chemie e 4 "Behindert in MINT bedeutet für mich, das zu machen, was mich interessiert und mir Spaß macht, trotz der vielen Barrieren. Es bedeutet für mich auch, aktivistisch zu sein, um Barrieren für alle nachfolgenden behinderten Chemiker*innen abzubauen!"
"(Neuro-)diversität ist eine unglaubliche Bereicherung für die Wissenschaft, bedeutet aber auch viel anzuecken. Gerade mit einer unsichtbaren Behinderung fällt man oft unters Radar. Dadurch wird man häufig nicht ernst genommen oder traut sich nicht, nach einem Nachteilsausgleich zu fragen. Ich liebe es aber, dass ich durch die Neurodivergenz um ganze andere Ecken denke und dadurch neue Perspektiven einbringen kann." Melina, Chemikerin
Vanessa H.* Chemikerin "Studierende müssen früh für das Thema Gesundheitsförderung und Härtefallantrag durch die Unis informiert und sensibilisiert werden. Nicht bei jeder*m ist eine Erkrankung ersichtlich. Nicht jede*r möchte darüber offen sprechen. Nicht jede*r weiß, dass für erkrankte Studierende bestimmte Möglichkeiten geschaffen werden können, sie im Laboralltag zu unterstützen."
Das JCF Team Chancengleichheit hat wieder unter #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike um Einsendungen gebeten. Dieses Mal unter dem Motto "Chemiker*innen mit Behinderung". Als Ergänzung zum Thema auch interessant, die "Karriere mit Barriere" Episode vom JCF-Podcast AllesChlor!
Jocelyn Bobbley and I are supremely psyched about the #IfThenSheCanExhibit showing @smithsonian visitors #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike! 🤩💪♀️
Check out some of my #IfThenSheCan sisters in the @TODAYshow story below! #WomenInSTEM #WomensFuturesMonth
I could not be any prouder to be part of the genuinely transformative @IfThenSheCan initiative. 💖💖💖 #WomenInSTEM #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike #IfThenSheCan
#WomenInSTEM, please consider and share this amazing mentorship opportunity! #EWAAB was founded by Kaitlin Gili of @FollowStevens, one of our AMAZING invited student speakers at #WoPhyS19 @UNLincoln. #IfThenSheCan #SeeItBeIt #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike
Little me loved to read, learn, think, and talk about big ideas with big people. Today, I have a career in #science and #scicomm that lets me do all that and so much more. #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike #IfThenSheCan #WomenInScience #IDWGS
I don't have many solo pics of myself "doing science." That's no coincidence, because science is all about collaboration and community. Science is social! So #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike: laughing and learning together! #STEMsquad #IfThenSheCan #WomenInSTEM #KellyClarksonShow
This year I’ve met so many amazing #WomenInSTEM, like @UCFTurtleLab and her team of many women working on sea turtles in Florida like this one here!

Wrangling scientists vs. wrangling beagles . . . pretty much the same skill set. 🙃
Thanks to all my fellow @aaas @IfThenSheCan Ambassadors for showing that #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike during our #TwitterTakeover! #IfThenSheCan #SeeItBeIt
I always loved visiting the Earth model of @marsrovers every chance I could get. It used to be called "SSTB" (surface system testbed) but is now called "Dusty." #ThanksOppy and #ThanksDusty for your service.
(Yes, I'm 8mos pregnant in this photo. #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike)
Inspired by @heysciencesam and #ScientistsWhoSelfie - I #scicomm to show what #ThisIsWhataScientistLooksLike. From stories of science and live experiments on stage to my work in the lab every day - I just love science!
