We science. We advocate. So others can science too. We get hate mail sometimes. This just makes us more determined to change policies in science labs & in the science community to be more inclusive. Change is happening. Equal access to education. #Science #dogs #DisabledInSTEM

Disabled Empowerment in Higher Ed Month (#DEHEM) begins tomorrow (10/1). We're still collecting stories of disabled experiences in higher ed. Please submit them below 👇 We will also be retweeting people's stories and experiences all month long! #DisInHigherEd
We are looking for personal stories and experiences (anon or not)! #DEHEM is happening in Oct & we want to highlight disabled stories/experiences - good or bad. For anonymous stories please fill out our google form [link] forms.gle/LMgKT5sYXvrxuFFV6 #DisInHigherEd #SharingStories

Wow! I just learned so much from the Inclusive Stem session at #ReclaimingSTEM2020! I can't wait to take these skills back to my Sci Comm journal club!!! :)
Today's self care session - Saying no to say yes to YOU! I need so much help with this and I'm so appreciative to spend a moment considering this and myself this morning 💛 #ReclaimingSTEM2020

Also this study is kind of like duh. Of course you found that people posted more negative things when they saw more negative posts & vice versa. That’s all they had to look at, comment on, and share! The risk far out weights the knowledge gains on this one.
Replying to @Iwillleavenow
Genuinely, the results are so small I do not know if they're scientifically significant. The study is still out there, if anyone more in this area wants to check: pnas.org/content/111/24/8788….
HORRIFYING. Why isn’t human research done by companies required to go through the same hoops as academics? Shame on those academics for using Facebook to get around the IRB. You all should know better & you make us all look bad in a time when no one trusts us anyway. DO BETTER.
Alright, because the documentary REALLY did not get into what the Facebook emotional contagion experiment was, I'm going to do a quick rundown of it and some broader issues with it. If you want the academic version, here's my article: ctlj.colorado.edu/wp-content…
Kindness and compassion over "smart" every time.

Wow! I learned so much today at #ReclaimingSTEM2020! I have to say though, I particularly loved @kylemarian's workshop for comedy in #scicomm! I'm always looking for ways to be funnier and I can't wait to practice this more!!!!
