So delighted to have been awarded one of the @[email protected] Decadal Awards last night. It was a reminder of how much work we've done in the last 10 years and how much more there is yet to do. #LGBTQSTEM #QueerInSTEM

I'm thoroughly enjoying 50 LGBTQ+ Finds from the Portable Antiquities Scheme by Ben Paites, especially the botanical and zoological content. 🦒🌸🦆

Makes for a great present . . . 🎅(sorry!)
