Thank you very much to UN Women @unwomen.bsky.social in Mozambique for inviting me to share my experience in science, diplomacy and advocacy. It was an honour to contribute to this important conversation! #ScienceWithAGenderPerspective #CiênciaComPerspectivaDeGénero

#InternationalYouthDay: Africa needs young people who speak, but also highly specialized ones. I entered research at 17, bachelor's at 20, PhD at 28. Dedication opened doors to global science advisory panels and international expert groups. Africa needs scientists! Happy #InternationalYouthDay!

Cell biology for a sustainable future – a call to action from Camila Costa, Eliott Flaum, @dhlashwayo.bsky.social, Marie Jacobovitz, Guillermina Kubaczka, Samuel Lovat, Eliya Milshtein, @hannaszafranska.bsky.social and @sorayazwahlen.bsky.social. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...
Drawing showing that planetary cell biology is a field that combines environmental sciences and cell biology. Understanding cellular function and its environmental context can be useful in explaining larger-scale systems operating at the multicellular and ecological levels. Furthermore, planetary cell biology provides key insights into how biological systems might adapt, be resilient to, and even mitigate, environmental perturbations associated with the climate crisis, such as changes in temperature, pH, pressure and other conditions.

#IDWGIS2026 We celebrate women in science! More women scientists at the tables where global policies are made. Honored to have shared my voice with #UNHumanRights last year. 🔗https://ohchr.org/en/stories/2025/05/meet-young-activists-fighting-hazardous-chemicals-and-waste

Pleased to have contributed to the review of the @undrr.bsky.social - @sciencecouncil.bsky.social Hazard Information Profiles! Standardizing and updating hazard profiles is essential for evidence-based policy and risk-informed planning. It was a privilege to take part!
