It went so well. Amazing students explaining how they’ve been involved in the research project on palaeoclimate data from coal through their BSc course at #UniSvalbard this spring to the King and Queen of Norway. And we ended the day with a reception at the Royal yacht!

Ready for the king of Norway. Two students will present our work on coal as a palaeoclimate archive to the King today.

Coal mining was the heart and soul of Longyearbyen and now it’s coming to an end. The last mine closes in a couple of weeks. But my daughter got to perform at the open day yesterday for people from town for a last visit to the mine #gruve7remix

STEM cultures often promote “depoliticization” or the bracketing of social or political concerns away from day-to-day STEM work, but when your identitiy and body is politicized then you risk being bracketed off - isolated, overlooked, dismissed - as you are seen as out-of-place

In Norwegian, but the essence is: “Female scientists with children publish 80% less than their male peers nine years after the first child is born”. Unfortunately this validates my experience, and most vulnerable part of my academic career. www.khrono.no/menn-med-bar...

khrono.no

Menn med barn publiserer mer, mens mødrene sakker akterut

Ni år etter at forskere får sitt første barn, publiserer far 80 prosent mer enn mor, viser ny svensk studie. Norske akademikere kjenner seg godt igjen.
