New account, new #introduction post! Hi, I’m Deanna (they/them) 👋 . I'm a postdoc at the Helsinki Institute of Physics working on #DarkMatter and #GravitationalWaves. I love science #outreach and I’ve been doing #cosmology livestreams - called #CupOfCosmology - since late 2015 (link in bio). I also often talk about my struggles with #MentalHealth in #academia, and my experience as #LGBTQInSTEM and as a (perceived) #WomenInSTEM.
I love meeting new people, so feel free to follow and interact!

This week, NSF announced that it will pilot test questions about sexual orientation and gender identity on the Survey of Earned Doctorates, its annual census of U.S. Ph.D. recipients. My latest story for @sciencemagazine. #ScienceMastodon #LGBTQinSTEM

@taber this is why I’ll never support #lgbtqinstem

This event on how everyday tech shapes our sexual desires from the Edinburgh Futures Institute looks ACE!

Hi everyone! I'm a queer theoretical physicist trying to understand the cool stuff that happened in the early universe. I've moved countries a few times, but now I'm settled in Finland.

I host #CupOfCosmology, a weekly interactive show about the universe (https://www.youtube.com/c/CupOfCosmology). I love animals, and I enjoy sci-fi shows, baking, listening to music and solving puzzles.

I'm here to learn new things and meet cool people!

I'm David, a queer Finnish physicist originally from Scotland. Here I am writing in a personal capacity.

I use big computers to simulate the very early universe.

I also want to become a better teacher. For example, I want to understand what leads people from minoritised groups to abandon studies in physics.

I help out with the local LGBTQ+ community, most recently our Kumpula LGBTQ+ STEM day event.

Trying not to be too miserable about having a very mild ear infection, spacey pin selection for work training session today 🌌🌌

Fun fact – people at work consider me really measured and insightful when I speak up in meetings I'm not facilitating/leading. Honestly most of the time I'm quiet because it takes me longer to process, so I generally say one thing in a meeting after being able to take in all the relevant information.

Hey #EnergyMastodon and #EnergyTwitter! Here's a quick #introduction to me: I'm a PhD candidate at the University of Oxford researching the impact of heat pump deployment on the electricity system in the UK and US. I focus on the spatial and grid planning aspects of this problem. During my PhD, I've become a bit of a map nerd and enjoyed communicating with policymakers and general audiences about my research. #Energy #heatpump #lgbtqinstem

Hi, I'm part of the influx of ex- #chemtwitter users!

I am a research technician based in London, currently working with NMR spectroscopy in metabolomics. Am just finishing up my PhD thesis on the application of DOSY to metabolic profiling. You'll find me on #NMRchat, chatting about books, and taking part in the #LGBTQInStem and #AcesInSTEM communities.

@ASleepyWanderer I loved the #Astrodon name! 🪐 Happy #LGBTQinSTEM day

Pretty excited to dig into this book this weekend

Happy #LGBTQinSTEM day to all my #Astrodon friends (and others!)

Since it's #LGBTQinSTEM Day, I thought it was time for an #introduction!

I'm a PhD student at Oxford where I study #earthquake mechanics, particularly an idea called determinism: do big and small earthquakes start the same, and does this mean we can determine magnitude before an earthquake rupture is over?

I'm a member of the #QueerInSTEM and #DisabledInSTEM communities and am passionate about EEDI work, including co-running my department's LGBTQIA+ group (today we're going for ice-cream! 🍦)
