After a hugely rewarding day in the teaching lab, I'm very happy to share this video conversation with Candace from @EPIC_UK_ about all the stuff I love about Science and how we can get more diverse communities represented in STEMM.

New publication in @JRSTpub with the fabulous @TameraSJo and @Maia_Popova! We used the science identity framework to understand how marginalized women experienced recognition while pursuing a PhD in chemistry. And it's open access! @Chemistry_URI @URI_AS onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

We have a new, open MOOC for all things AI, ethics and academic integrity.
The MOOC guides students through the practical use of AI/GenAI tools, the ethical considerations around using AI, and the key considerations of academic integrity and rigour.
