Dr Sophie Prosolek (she/they) 🧬

Last night I press-ganged a mass spec engineer at a live music night, just to interview the heck out of him for copywriting purposes. This is the monster that content marketing for #biotech has turned me into 🤠

Would love to add that as a disabled person there have been so many times I’ve questioned my chance of a career I feel so privileged to work, and to love what I do every day Bipolar disorder does not have to mean the end of a career in STEM. Far from it #DisabledInSTEM

Low res and knackered but v happy to finally share that I’ve been promoted to Senior Science Writer @Tech_Networks! Celebrating with a G&T 🍸 P.S Threads heard about this first 😎 #ScienceTwitter #AltAc #Threads

The future of vegan and alternative protein foods remains so uncertain - even though we recognize the need to diversify and adjust our food supply chain I found this one SO INTERESTING to write👇 @Tech_Networks #Science #Foodie #Vegan shorturl.at/xCF28

ty to all the inspiring LGBTQ+ STEM folks who've followed/messaged. For those who don't know me; here is a quick re-intro: I'm Dr Sophie (PhD molecular nutrition); science writer/content producer with a big passion for factual media. Passionate about fitness & mental health ❤️

Just wanting to share this resource for a little inspiration 👇❤️🏳️‍🌈

I promise I'm working though all the wonderful responses that I've had with regard to my call for interviewees! Thank you so much for all being wonderful and inspirational. I'm so grateful for you all! ❤️

Big 'thanks' to everyone who's recommended inspirational LGBTQ+ folks to interview for the upcoming feature I know many of you already, but I do love expanding my circle to include new faces You're all amazing - keep doing great things Big love x

Looking to interview inspirational scientists from the LGBTQ+ community For publication during Pride Month🏳️‍🌈 If you have someone in mind, please send them my way! P.S: you don't have to have done a tonne of advocacy to be inspirational!❤️🙂 #ScienceTwitter #phdchat

Absolutely loving writing my latest article at the moment It's given me a chance to re-visit my big foodie sciencey passion - molecular nutrition 🥦❤️ #SciComm #WritersOfTwitter #ScienceTwitter

Its only since becoming a full time technical writer that I've come to realise how truly threatening "Hi John. Hope you're well" actually sounds. Like - yes, John. You better hope that you're well. You could be riddled with parasites that you don't even know about 👽

Me: I can't hack academia, too much job uncertainty Also me: I know, I'll be a SCIENCE PRESENTER #SciComm #AcademicChatter

A job ad has gone viral for requiring their applicants to be WEDDED to the role Science ads say much the same thing, in fewer words (eg. relocate, unpaid overtime) The discourse seems to be passing STEM by this morning? @BBCr4today #ScienceTwitter theguardian.com/education/20…

Does anyone else get horrendous flu every time they do a Science Festival? It was totally worth it, but I've been feeling like absolute death since Sunday #SciComm

Enjoyed another chat with @BBCNorfolk about all things #WomenInScience Now enjoying @AdamRutherford’s #NorwichSciFest talk 🤩 Today’s a very good day for science!

The biggest legacy that academia has left in my life could be the fact that I now fear arriving somewhere that doesn't have one of those coffee dispensers
