Ebba Lund (b. #OTD in 1923) was an extraordinary Danish chemical engineer, microbiologist & virologist who lived two distinct lives. Before becoming a towering figure in European #science, she was a fearless #WWII resistance fighter who personally saved hundreds of lives. 🧵 #WomenInSTEM

A close-up, black-and-white Photograph of Ebba Lund (1923–1999), the heroic Danish World War II resistance fighter, chemical engineer, and pioneering microbiologist. Lund is framed centrally against a dark, indistinct background. Her face is illuminated by a warm, genuine smile. Her short, textured, light hair is styled in a casual, piecey crop with soft bangs sweeping across her forehead. She is dressed in a cozy, dark-toned high-neck sweater or turtleneck layered under a thick, textured, knit or crocheted outer garment. The tight composition focuses entirely on her expressive, joyful face, evoking an intimate, friendly, and deeply resilient mood. This portrait carries profound historical significance; it presents the approachable visage of the legendary "Girl with the Red Beret" before pioneering crucial scientific frameworks in environmental virology to track and curb global polio epidemics.

#TombTuesday Lancelot Andrewes, serving under Elizabeth I + James I as Bishop of Chichester, Ely and Winchester, was key in translation of King James Bible. Died 1626 in Winchester Palace; buried nearby @southwarkcathedral.bsky.social where that 400th anniversary is being marked this weekend. ALT

An elaborate gilded tomb: the rectangular tomb/plinth is of dark grey marble with three panels with the coats of arms of the Bishop. A sculpted polychrome image of him lies on top in robes, resting on red cushions. Above him four gilded ionic pillars with a zig zag decoration support a gilded canopy topped with further decorative features and a date of MCMXXX when the tomb was restored. The tomb has been moved twice.
A stand with votive candles sits in front of the tomb, and the view behind is into the chancel of the cathedral and to tombs beyond in the corresponding aisle the other side.
400th anniversary of death of Bishop Lancelot Andrewes is being marked in numerous events under the umbrella of Andrewes 400: https://cathedral.southwark.anglican.org/whats-on/2609-lancelot-400/

In all the grandiose discussion about colonising Mars, I don't see much about how the soil is poisonous to us. This was only discovered in 2008. It contains perchlorates, which are environmental toxins here on Earth. Any human contact with Mars dust? Super-bad news in the long run. 1/

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.
