Know any US based 5-8th grade STEM teachers looking for free ways to connect their students with real STEM professional mentors to help them see themselves in STEM?
Tell them to sign up for Letters to a Pre-Scientist!

Today I met with students in Obregón, Sonora to talk about climate change and ocean acidification through @SkypeScientist and sent off the first letter to my pre-scientist pen pal through @LettersPreSci!
My friends bought me a doctoral sword (a replica of Andúril, the blade of Gondor) inscribed with my degree.
I will now have a sword in my office.
This week in lab we are doing metallic and ionic structures. I love relating periodic properties to the rocks I was obsessed with as a kid.

According to a neighbor women make MORE than men in academia.
I about lost my mind correcting him then went into how it is even worse for women of color.
He was not ready.
No one tells you that the experience you get obtaining a PhD helps you plan a wedding.
Time tables? Check.
In depth research of vendors? Check.
Spreadsheets galore? Check.
Proud of @DugongsD for their support of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
Always happy to just listen to science talk while I work on lectures!
Thinking about a new project and it turns out trees are very different from coral. Who would have thought?
