And to get a feel of how participating on these workshops is like then @parmvir.com is the person behind these @scientistsinc.org's videos, expect this year's to come at some point in 2026;

Probably not standard in many PhD courses (that should change!) but our @moffittnews.bsky.social @mathonco.bsky.social students had a lecture on science communication and outreach by the one and only @parmvir.com @scientistsinc.org

So many children who love science are unable to participate. So we created the #SensationalSciFest an opportunity for "exploration without limitations".
On Saturday April 5th we're hosting a sensory-friendly event for neurodiverse kids to experience science on their terms:

We love this event idea and the participation with #CienciaPR. In a similar vein we have held a Science Fail Fest as part of our @tasteofscience.org programs, to highlight that failure is not just a natural, but inevitable and necessary part of science.

I can highly recommend @skypeascientist.bsky.social (link www.skypeascientist.com) - elementary, middle and high-schoolers have the best questions, and it is so much fun to talk to them about science!

Having good vetted sources of information is vital right now.

This is something we'll be sharing with our community.

The news cycle right now - even just for science & higher ed - is overwhelming. We have to do it, but fortunately, we don’t have to do it alone.

My team is focused on tracking what’s happening to research funding, jobs & salaries, shared datasets, university responses & safety of our communities

When science gets political — 2Scientists Science, genetics, teaching and policy. Four things that easily define our guest Dr. Amy J Hawkins. She’s studied the ways that DNA can be damaged in cancer. She’s worked on curricula to help teach ...

For no particular reason 😏 we're re-sharing our episode with dear friend and dedicated science advocate @amyjhawkins.bsky.social. She's done cancer research, is an expert in genetics education, she's a scicommer and has run for local office in Utah.

The queen of oxytocin — 2Scientists Oxytocin is often touted as the “love hormone”, but it’s also the focus of neuroscientist Dr. Bianca Jones Marlin . Bianca sat down to tell us about her work on how trauma can be inherited, and how ...

We're stoked to learn that The Queen of Oxytocin herself is here on Bluesky! We have fond memories of meeting @bjmarlin.bsky.social in New York many moons ago to learn more about her work on the "love hormone" and inherited trauma.

Book cover of Black, Brown, Bruised with a description: "BLACK, BROWN, BRUISED by Ebony Omotola McGee explores how racism in STEM education and careers holds back Black and Brown students and limits new ideas. Using personal stories and research, McGee calls for changes to make STEM more fair and open to everyone."

📚✨ We're building a library! Our first book spotlight is Black, Brown, Bruised by Ebony Omotola McGee. McGee's research underscores the urgent need for inclusive environments that empower all aspiring scientists.

@scientistsinc.bsky.social has done this for 10+ yrs now through our in-person events for grown ups @tasteofscience.bsky.social, our @2scientists.bsky.social podcast and most recently our #SensationalSciFest for kids with sensory sensitivities. Each connecting people with science in unique ways.

Science, Solidarity, and Action — Scientists Inc Science, at its best, is a bridge, not a barrier. It invites questions, sparks curiosity, and opens doors to understanding. We believe that people, given the opportunity, can change.

A new year's message from us to you. A commitment to: Science, Solidarity and Action.
