The power of a cross-campus public university team spanning @uconnhealth, @UConn Schools of Nursing, Medicine, Engineering, and Education : foundation.uconn.edu/covid-19-cases…
#WomenInSTEM leading #GirlsInSTEM! Pragmatic, cost effective interventions for improved indoor air quality and having fun while learning physics, engineering, math, and science! The perfect combo that benefits all! Thanks @kprather88 for your leadership, generations are watching!
@UConn is the flagship University within State of Connecticut, and it feels natural to have community partnerships: We hope other state funded universities follow suit, as this exercise builds STEM education AND self-efficacy benefits for learner AND the community!
“Air Force One” is in DC! Yesterday, Hartford 5th graders learned STEM education in a fun, hands on project that mitigates air pollution from both indoor and outdoor sources once you plug it in! #GirlsinSTEM @uconnhealth @UConn @ChrisMurphyCT @GovNedLamont @kprather88 @polsiewski 
This was a simple STEM exercise by 5th grade public students that all schools can easily recreate. Just plug it in when you’re done and you have immediately improved indoor air quality!
Today is #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience! I am so incredibly lucky to have so many amazing #WomenInScience to work with! So listing just a few here… 👩🔬👩🔬👩🔬

@UON_research I have amazing colleagues in #STEM, from those I work with like @KiddVerdon to others who are just doing amazing stuff like @scientistjessie, @DaphneJamesUON, @oreotheoread, @juanitatodd10, and @Dr_Jess_Allen. Some I’m lucky enough to consider as mates!

December 1st and today starts my traditional Women in STEM advent calendar. Some I have tweeted about before, some are new. Time to open door no 1.

Door 1 - Hertha Ayrton. British engineer, mathematician, physicist, inventor. Known for her work with the electric arc + discovery with waves and ripple.
1899, she was the first woman ever to read her own paper before the Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE).

Door 2 - Katharine Burr Blodgett. Physicist and chemist. Invented the nonreflective glas. Which improved everything from eyeglasses to the camera on your phone. She was the first woman to receive a PhD in physics from the @Cambridge_Uni

"#STEM may be male-dominated, I feel that a lot of us, limit ourselves by not challenging the status quo," Anika told @TeenVogue. "To all other young girls who want to make a difference, do not let society’s standards hold you back from reaching your full potential.” #21Under21
It’s no secret that women, especially women of color, are underrepresented in STEM careers.

@MarleneSchiappa @UNICEF @_TheFamily "Pourquoi n'avez vous pas inscrit votre fille ?" quand @MarleneSchiappa inscrit son ainée à des ateliers de code - la voit seule parmi 25 garçons - et interroge les parents des amies de sa fille
@MarleneSchiappa @UNICEF @_TheFamily 2 réponses :
"Parce ce qu'on pensait que c'etait pour les garçons"
"Parce qu'on pensait qu'il n'y aurait que des garçons"

As a child, how would you have liked moving schools in new cities with different cultures every 2-4 years?
Growing up in the #IndianArmy, I absolutely loved it! By the time I was 18, we had moved over 9 times across 9 states! #Diversity #India #TravelTuesday #IWS #VoicesIWS

Yesterday this gentleman on twitter broke my heart with his tweet and it launched me on my first tweetstorm. One of the most effective ways to show girls they are more than clever enough to be scientists and leaders is to show them role models doing it. Here goes... #girlsinstem
