The Titanic sub billionaire rescue mission is entering final hours of hope to find survivors. Meanwhile in Italy & Greece, search & rescue to save people at sea is criminalised. Pia Klemp is among those facing jail for rescuing migrants #r4today #FreePia morningstaronline.co.uk/node…

Today feels special. A big milestone in life. This girl from Calcutta grew up to build and lead a science museum in Cambridge. If you are in Boston come preview the #BroadDiscoveryCenter next week (Oct 3-6, 10 am-3 pm) for @CambSciFest. 🧵 1/3

Happy Friday! @IgniteLC is happy to share another #LITspotlight! We are excited to introduce @aliaqatarneh, Program Director of the Massachusetts @Amgen Biotech Experience at @Harvard. A fun fact about Alia is that she also raps about science and has won an award for it! #STEM

Two former #BioBuilder Apprentices presented earlier this month at @ragoninstitute summer scholar program. So proud of Oscar and Nicole. They are world-changers! (And thanks to them both for the #BioBuilder shout-out from the stage) @pinkerteach @MALifeScience #BioBuilder

Nothing could confirm Trump’s guilt more than this statement this morning suggesting the FBI planted evidence. He got caught and he knows it. This is what guilty people say. Expect this to be the new GOP talking point.
