Do you want to make a difference to the third-sector? Here’s how to get involved in Pro Bono OR 🧪

We start off today’s @theorsociety.bsky.social Simulation Workshop day with a keynote on a fantastic urban digital twin model of the University of Bordeaux campus #SW25 #Modelling #Simulation

Great to be at @theorsociety.bsky.social Simulation Workshop #SW25 learning about simulation uses in healthcare, airline and military settings today, as well as a bespoke discrete event simulation tutorial using open source software #Modelling #Simulation

A recent post on the @a4e.org slack has sparked my attention to this fascinating paper on a rigorous estimate of the carbon footprint of astronomical research www.nature.com/articles/s41... Follow up with different future scenarios: www.nature.com/articles/s41.... #Extragalactic 🧪🔭 #WomenInSTEM

The @royalastrosoc.bsky.social NAM is opening for abstract submissions today, with a huge range of sessions on astronomy and adjacent fields. There are also sessions on the importance of astronomy technology in society, art, and much more! conference.astro.dur.ac.uk/event/7/prog... 🔭 #Extragalactic

It’s Race Equality Week and this year’s theme is #EveryActionCounts Find out more about bitesized daily challenges that we can all do here: www.raceequalitymatters.com/5-day-challe...

Calling all operational researchers, exciting opportunity with @theorsociety.bsky.social coming up this March 🧪 #WomenInSTEM

Awful news but not at all surprising. Guess there really is no job security in academia 😠 www.walesonline.co.uk/news/educati...

Fully funded PhD scholarships focusing on exascale computing model development and data analysis, as well as multidisciplinary training for students in Earth system processes and applications. Application deadline is 17th February 2025. 🔭🧪⚛️ #WomenInSTEM

Great new blog by Voices of Academia 🧪🔭⚛️

Happy new year all!

If you’re a student between 16-19 years in the UK (Y12 or S5/S6), In2STEM is an opportunity for exploring what a career in STEM could look like. Application information is here: in2scienceuk.org/our-programm... Information on how to introduce this to your school: in2scienceuk.org/our-programm... 🧪👩🏾‍🔬

surreal 🔭🧪 #PHANGS-JWST NCG628 imaging is being turned into a US POSTAGE STAMP ✉️ !! ✨The imaging has truly taken a life of its own. Grateful for the amazing village of collaborators, comms folks, USPS for bringing the universe to people's doorsteps.✨ #extragalactic www.space.com/usps-james-w...

For any PhDs thinking of transitioning out of traditional academia where the beans that get counted are high-impact, numerous pubs... just know that you have so many other skills that are highly valuable in other spaces! 🧪

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have released a new 2025 calendar, showcasing another year of images and discoveries 🧪 🔭 👩🏾‍🔬 ⚛️ Download here: ow.ly/UG3F50UqCLm 📷 ESA - European Space Agency/Hubble Space Telescope, ESA/James Webb Space Telescope

The Bell Burnell Graduate Scholarship Fund applications are open! This provides funding for current/prospective PhD students from underrepresented groups in #Physics ⚛️ & Astronomy 🔭 🧪Application deadline is 20th Jan 2025. FAQs: www.iop.org/about/suppor... #WomenInSTEM: www.iop.org/about/suppor...

Hello Bluesky 🙂 it’s my one-year viva-versary! And thought I’d take this occasion to share my astrophysics PhD thesis on interstellar dust and gas in the Andromeda galaxy: arxiv.org/abs/2403.19798 🔭⚛️ #extragalactic

We are live! 🔭 ✨ PHANGS-JWST infrared imaging of 19 nearby galaxies ✨ ~100,000 PHANGS-HST star clusters and associations across 38 nearby galaxies 👉 data release archive.stsci.edu/hlsp/phangs 👉 press and image release webbtelescope.org/contents/new...

The Astronomy feeds now include 11 (!!!) brand new specific subfeeds! 🔭 The subfeeds try to cover every part of astronomy research with at least one feed. All subfeeds automatically crosspost to the main Astronomy feed, too! Here's a thread with links to all of them ⬇️

Using our first ever Bluesky post to let you know more about our Scholars Programme! We work across the UK with students aged 8-18. A world-expert PhD researcher comes into your school and delivers a university-style course, usually based on their own research, to small groups of pupils.

Episode two of mine and @payeldas.bsky.social podcast is live! Join us as we delve into some cool astronomy papers from the last month 🔭🧪

A spiral galaxy, observed with the Apache Point 2.5m Telescope in the SDSS survey. It is at redshift 0.028 (lookback time 397.0 million years) with coordinates (213.12100, 24.63550). 49 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo 2.

My latest tv offering: me and my rather fabulous MRI scanned, 3D printed brain. New two-part Horizon special coming in the Spring on BBC2.
