Diversity is our greatest asset, even if the government disagrees… They not like us! POC in STEM are here to stay.
They tried to rig the game but you can’t fake influence!

Amazing work (although I started to feel itchy seeing the burrowing mites 😬)
But even more inspiring is her lab's outreach work - building genuine relationships with traditional owners and bringing a passion for STEM to remote communities.

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

MicroRNAs in the spotlight
Teeny tiny RNA has just won a big science prize for its discoverers. We zoom in on the smallest type of genetic material.
I sincerely apologise for the insanely large photo of myself in this blog, which seems rise menacingly across your screen as you scroll 😱 (you've been warned)
Fun, pun-filled explainer of our teams work, though!

Ooook, after the US election I feel kinda gross having an account on Ol' Musky's bird app, so I'll be here full time methinks.
Any recommendations for good, inclusive science content?

TL;DR: Rabies is dangerous because by the time you start having symptoms YOU ARE FUCKED. It's spread by mammals, so the best thing to do to prevent yourself and everyone you love from ending up COMPLETELY FUCKED is to vaccinate your pets for it, and support vaccination programs for wildlife.
