Tectonic plate puzzle anyone? 🌎

Made by me, one at a time. I’m planning to have a really limited number available before the holidays - if you want to find out when I do, sign up to my newsletter! I will share them through it first.

Hot off the press!

Just picked up my 2026 geo-themed calendars from my printers, so if you’ve pre-ordered one it will be on its way soon! ✨

And, if you didn’t pre-order but would like to take a journey through geological time in 2026, I have a few spare - grab one! #LinkInBio

How is your relationship with science?
Too often, "it's complicated"

It shouldn't have to be 😉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekuB...

Making some new space themed papercuts for a market soon 🌙

Really loving the color-coordinating mount! (And planning to paint the frames too)

You can only pick one:
- Foodie trip to the Archean
or
- Critter spotting in the Cambrian?

Neither? Ok... I have some others too. Check them out > www.luciaperezdiaz.com/category/all...

Yesterday was fun! (And exhausting)

I ran four children’s workshops at @geolsoc.bsky.social as part of London Open House Festival. We built geological timescales, put together tectonic plate puzzles and talked about how the Earth works and what being a scientist is like.

Thanks for having me!

I strongly second this! 👏🏾

When talking about science communication, I also always stress that *all* forms and forums of communication matter 🔄

Whether it’s a big, factually correct but details-lite TV show or movie…or just chatting to granny or your mates in a pub 🗣️
Fantastic piece in Nature Reviews Neuro by @nicolecrust.bsky.social on the importance of science communication. My take? Everything matters - just do something. It will make a difference for how science is valued and trusted, how community understands. Let's get out there and communicate! 👏
The unexpected value of communicating science to the public
Nature Reviews Neuroscience - As a group, our scientific community has a responsibility to unpack the ‘what’ and ‘why’ behind our work for the public, not least because much...

Is science an exclusive club?
For much of the public, it sure must seem like that sometimes.

Let's change it!

Ps. It was not UNINA that made this event possible. It was a wonderful team of volunteers, that worked very hard despite the limited support from them ✨

It was quite a bit of work but it was worth it!!

Some new tectonic plate puzzles ready for my workshops at the Open House Festival in London this weekend 🤩

Now to wash all the paint mess I have made in the process 🥲

US friends! I'm back to shipping to the US after it's been confirmed that my products (paper goods) should not incur customs charges - phew! There is a small handling fee, but it's only 50 pence :)
