Happy #WorldBookDay here’s two different book projects I’ve worked on.1) A flash of light was a book sprint where a group of science communicators wrote a book together in a weekend! I wrote a chapter of it! @rsc.org @sciencemadesimple.bsky.social

Happy Valentines - don't like the whole manufactured nonsense obviously - but DO love my new @tattydevine.bsky.social necklace - can't decide it it's Rolling Stones or Rocky Horror show but I'm probably more Rocky that Mick!

Also fascinating insights from @elunedparrott.bsky.social helping the @ukri.org @csacatapult.bsky.social cdt semiconductor hub students understand who to talk to in policy @sciencemadesimple.bsky.social engagement training

Wendy Sadler @wendyjsadler.bsky.social · 04/02/2025

So great we have @proftomcrick.com (CSA for Dept culture media and sport) come and talk about how semiconductor scientists can engage with policymakers! Great questions from students. Fascinating insights. @sciencemadesimple.bsky.social

A packed room to hear about @horizoneu.bsky.social funding today in Cardiff. We’re hoping to bring back #Adiff. Also known as Researchers Night Wales. Get in touch if you’re interesting in linking up with us!! @sciencemadesimple.bsky.social

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic. (posting in 3 parts due to Bluesky's 1 minute limit)

In my desire to connect the usefulness of STEM to everyday life I investigated which mug I should choose for my afternoon cuppa. Rapidly fell into a rabbit hole about male and female gulp volumes. But the short answer is 5mm difference gives about 3 gulps less tea! @sciencemadesimple.bsky.social

Loved learning that Boxing Day is a bit of a Christmas present to science journalists who get space for their passion projects to be published! @llantwit.bsky.social @sciencemadesimple.bsky.social #MediaEngagement

So proud of the research done by my student Artemis Peck last year - published in Physics World (yay!) - why we need more Queer role models in Physics physicsworld.com/a/why-we-nee...

physicsworld.com

Why we need more pride in physics – Physics World

Artemis Peck and Wendy Sadler explain that we need more initiatives to make sure queer people feel comfortable and welcome in science
