I’ll unfortunately be out of the country, but I strongly encourage my LGBTQ+ colleagues and friends in STEM to sign up and go along to what I’m sure will be great event!
Spaces like this are amazing opportunities to connect and make STEM welcoming place for queer people.
#LGBTQ #Pride #STEM
The @rsc.org are delighted to be speaking at and supporting the @queerstemworkshop.bsky.social, taking place 22–23 September 2026 in Cambridge.
A chance to connect, reflect and build stronger networks across STEM #ChemSky
