"Science is fun and being a scientist is a fun job!"
On this year's International Day for Women and Girls in Science, listen to 2023 medicine laureate Katalin KarikΓ³ speak about being a scientist.
What is your favourite thing about being a scientist?

On Friday 8th September, the #PGR Student Symposium was held at the @UofGARC. There were talks from academics, technical flash talks, and industry presentations. In addition to the poster presentations, there was a Q&A session on #PhDThesis.
What a day! Pleasure returning to my secondary school after 10 years (!) as an interviewer for the year 10 pupils. It was inspiring to hear the responses of some determined young people π
What a great class of future scientists! π
Thank you @LorneStreetPS Mrs Hughes' P6 class for having us this morning to run the first Heart workshop! π« We discussed the structure of the heart, heart rates (with some comparative physiology) and made origami hearts lead by @DrLizzieBurns

Some very talented future scientists had a go at recreating some spatial transcriptimics today with the @UofGLivingLab! Colour coding areas of high, medium and low gene expression π #BritishScienceWeek
Thanks to the Living Lab team for having us along for the day!! β at Glasgow, Scotland

We were delighted to be @gsc1 today for the Meet the Expert event! School students across Glasgow learned about DNA and tried their hand at drawing some #transcriptomic data this #BritishScienceWeek
Some Sunday night baking ready for the @UofGSCMH pot luck tomorrow...my bike fuel banana bread π² π΅ β at Glasgow, Scotland
I was lucky enough to grow up never feeling like I couldn't do something because I am a woman, one day hopefully every girl will be as lucky as me #IWD2023 #EmbraceEquity β at Glasgow, Scotland
BHF-funded PhD student, Cara Trivett, shares how the BHF centre in Glasgow has given her a platform to engage with students and the public to improve awareness of women and underrepresented groups in the scientific community.

It was a pleasure to share our @BHFScotland research today! Thank you @AnasSarwar and @jackiebmsp for your attention and questions! π« β at Glasgow, Scotland
Good to welcome @AnasSarwar MSP and @jackiebmsp to @BHFCoREGlasgow today. They met with @UofGMVLS colleagues and PHD students to discuss the challenges and opportunities around medical science and research capabilities π«π©Ί
Absolutely fabulous day building brains with the pupils at Sandaig Primary, learning lots about how our brains work π β at Glasgow, Scotland
Absolutely loved working alongside @DrLizzieBurns to bring Build a Brain educational workshops to @sandaigprimary. Thank you the @UofGlasgow scientists @CaraTrivett & Jodi who have come to deliver these to a few of our classes.

ALT A timeline graphic running through a brief history of women in science, from circa 2700 BC up to the 21st century and beyond. The women are a diverse mix of people from across the globe who have worked sand pioneered across every aspect of science. From discovering dinosaurs to engineering breakthrough medical technology in the midst of a pandemic, women truly are deserving of celebration in the world of science.
