Taking advantage of some sunny weather in the U.K. to get our house in order! Ready for the next Congress. But where will it be?!

A lot of background work and expense goes into running #ThisGirlBlocks. I’d like to thank @brotheruk for the very welcome donation of printer paper for our VC500W! The photo wall is coming back to a congress near you 😎 #Smile

Big thanks to @anzca.bsky.social for the invite and shouting us a run of Rosie mugs. We hope they all found good homes. And thanks to @surimex / @pajunk for the sponsorship. See you again soon. #ASM26AKL

See you Sunday!

So today is International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Hats off to all the ladies in STEM doing an incredible job despite barriers they face. You all rock! ⭐️

Today is international day of women and girls in science / STEM. I'm son of a maths graduate and husband of a doctor, and proud to know both of these inspirational women. I occasionally see my teenage daughter hide the things she is good at to fit in. We still have work to do. #WomenInScience

A day late, but apparently yesterday was International female physicians day! With evidence mounting ladies rock at doctoring, hats off to all of us doing our thing. Keep up the good work girls!
