It is International Day of Women and Girls in Science. 🔬 #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM @who.int View ALT text for more info on Rosalind Franklin
Rosalind Franklin’s work in X-ray crystallography was key to uncovering DNA’s double-helix structure. In a field dominated by men, she not only excelled but also shattered stereotypes, demonstrating that women drive groundbreaking discoveries in science.

A team in Exeter has developed a finger-prick test to classify long Covid into three types: weak antibody response, excess immune response, and unclear patterns. Early results suggest it could guide tailored treatments, but larger trials are needed. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Jonas Salk didn't patent his 1955 polio vaccine so that it would be affordable for all people. As a result, he lost an estimated 7 billion dollars Saying in an interview "There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?" #jonassalk #polio #vaccines #getvaccinated #vaccinessavelives #Healthcare

I wrote one of my past professors to say how often I think of her & how she shaped me as a scholar & educator. she responded: “you know of course that mentoring works only when everyone involved is open to genuine learning & presence & engagement, & so recognize in yourself those qualities, right?”

this is literally what it feels like to have astigmatism
A wider field view of Westerlund 1. A dense cluster of bright stars, each with six large and two small diffraction spikes, due to the telescope’s optics. They have a variety of sizes depending on their brightness and distance from us in the cluster, and different colours reflecting different types of star. Patches of billowing red gas can be seen in and around the cluster, lit up by the stars. Small stars in the cluster blend into a background of distant stars and galaxies on black.
