I certainly hope he apologized to Rosalind Franklin for taking her discovery of the structure of DNA. #WomenSTEM #STEMWomen

So many reasons 2B upset with recent moves by Alberta gov whose current leader benefited from the very #EDI initiatives they intend to dismantle.

As academics, we need 2B vocal- EDI initiatives must remain firmly embedded in academia. @cdnwomenstem.bsky.social

The Mintz Report is wrong on EDI - University Affairs
Demanding ‘institutional neutrality,’ Alberta’s report on the post-secondary system risks silencing equity.

I don't often post anything from IG however this particular post is a powerful reminder of how women experience the world differently and are judged/criticized differently.

I would rather fail trying than be the critic that "wins" because they never step out.

The temp in my lab is out of control (constantly).

Not the best of conditions for trainees or experiments.

Time to fix the fluctuating temperatures in the Tupper building. Maybe less expensive to tear the bldg down and rebuild consulting scientists.

Joy to see a Marignani Lab trainees innovating, creating and changing the healthcare narrative for women, makes me 🙂.
