Scientific objectivity is a myth – cultural values and beliefs always influence science and the people who do it.

The Edinburgh participants at dinner at VasCog!

Esto es súper esclarecedor:
Los hombres sin pareja se consideran una crisis grave, pero las mujeres sin pareja se consideran una traición egoísta, porque los hombres emparejados acceden al trabajo gratis de su pareja (en el hogar y familia) y eso les permite ascender socioeconómicamente.

Edinburgh is hosting a QUEER DATA SHOWCASE! ✨

We’re inviting artists, academics, activists and anyone who works with – or is interested in – queer data to share their ideas.

📢 The Call for Presenters is live!

Congratulations to this absolute force of a woman for this 🎉👏 can't wait to hear about the exciting science she'll be doing (and hear her go on about lipids for hours on end) 💖

I was thrilled to receive this news—I’ve been awarded the #MSCAPostdoctoralFellowship for my project, PHOS-SVD! Extremely grateful for the support of @annawilliamslab.bsky.social, @nadlerlab.bsky.social and my colleagues for their feedback. Excited to begin the journey into membrane lipid research!

Hey Erik! I’d love to be added to the feed, I’m a Postdoc at the university of Edinburgh ☺️
Here’s my linktree with my website/researchgate/linkedin if that’s useful! linktr.ee/tomavitamina...

I was already high-key obsessed with Edinburgh but seeing it under snow has been simply magical ✨❄️

Me presento para las nuevas como yo en esta nuestra comunidad✨ soy investigadora y profe precaria en psicología y mi misión en la vida es queerizar la ciencia, mamarrachear la academia y hablar sobre sáficas. Hasta ahora no me han echado de la universidad pero podría pasar en cualquier momento

La mejor persona en cualquier red social (y maravillosa la foto en la que estamos desorinadas en mitad de una charla ❤️‍🩹)

Probablemente el mejor cumplido que me han hecho en la vida pienso usar supernova en mi currículum de aquí en adelante ✨☄️❤️‍🩹

Por supuesto, infinitas gracias y amor para mi highlight personal, mi otra Frida, mi persona favorita y casi-siamesa esta conferencia y la persona más importante en haber pisado esta sala desde Einstein @aliciatamarit.bsky.social. El activismo es verdaderamente las amigas que hicimos en el camino 🫂

El corazón lleno un año más después de la #ConferenciaPRISMA2024 - siempre es un placer ver lo bonito que es todo al organizar espacios seguros donde todo el mundo puede ser elle misme y abrazamos la diversidad de esta manera ❤️‍🩹🫂

I also got to deliver a talk on mental health in Academia (and how we can try and manage ours) - and to no one’s surprise, make it about Taylor Swift, again. So happy to see people at Edinburgh Neuroscience are creating this very necessary spaces and elated to be a part of it! ❤️‍🩹🫂

Such a pleasure to participate today in this panel where I got to share some insights into all those other things we get during a PhD apart from the more obvious technical skills. Thank you so much to @garyfalliagouna.bsky.social for brilliantly chairing and to the rest of the speakers! ❤️‍🩹

It was a great pleasure to chair the Transferable Skills session at the Autumn School for PhD students, organized by Edinburgh Neuroscience today! Thank you to Dr. James O'Malley, Dr. Manuela Marescotti, @tomavitamina.bsky.social @cathyabbott.bsky.social, Dr. Marja Main for an insightful discussion.

As part of our summer campaign, we took a look into skin and spinal cord health. We asked members of the Williams Group to share their research into Multiple Sclerosis and how the spinal cord is involved in this work.

Also want to include our lovely Martina, who is as much a Williams lab postdoc but couldn't be here for the group picture! 🤩

Where all the magic happens 👩‍🔬

Kicking off our Bluesky accounts with a cute little photo for Postdoc Appreciation Week at the @annawilliamslab.bsky.social ❤️‍🩹
