Working on a story about paternity leave in academia. Many hetero dads already volunteered to share their perspectives. Would love to include more diversity -- academic dads in same-sex relationships. Willing to share your pat leave story? @OUTinSTEM @DiverseSources

Today in my Skype a Scientist session a girl asked me a hard hitting question: what do you do with your hair when you go in the ocean. Idk if y'all realize this, but these are real concerns. The simple answer I gave was: I put it in a pony tail, but it's so much more complex 1/9

Being a minority in STEM has affected me more than I’ve ever really admitted out loud. I never once thought that I couldn’t work in STEM - my family always made me feel like I can touch the stars, but I never grew up seeing STEM workers who were like me, a black girl from SE LDN
