Can't ever forget November 14th as #WorldDiabetesDay. My heart is still with my #diabetes research and all the fabulous people I've met along my journey, particularly the phenomenal people who live with diabetes. #Science #scicomm #phdchat #150mins Diabetes Canada

This! I mentioned this a few times as a panelist at #CSPC2023. #ScienceCommunication is vital & NEEDS funding. Without our #ScienceCommunicators, pertinent info would not have reached those who needed it to make impt health decisions. #scicomm #science #scipol

Celebrating another year of life! Thankful and blessed for the people in my life (family & friends), opportunities I've had and ability to follow my passions. Here's to another year of growing, learning & giving back! #Scientistswhoselfie #birthday (Photos from a trip to Rio).

A fun & enjoyable part of my job with Canadian Association of Science Centres ScienceUpFirst | LaScienced'Abord is to visit Canadian Science Centers & museums. Currently at Our Climate Quest exhibition launch at Ontario Science Centre in collab with Science North & Dynamic Earth. #science #STEM #STEMeducation #scicomm #ClimateAction #scientists

Such a huge fan of the work that Dr Michelle Wong does, debunking beauty #misinformation in a clear & easy to understand way. Check out her new book where she breaks down the #Science & #chemistry of cosmetics! #scicomm #beauty #scientist

One of the main reasons I'm not on here much anymore 🤦🏽‍♀️. Imagine this is where money goes...instead of much better causes it should be supporting.

What a surreal experience today, observing the #SolarEclipse in #NiagaraFalls (path of totality). The applause that broke out during totality just made the experience even more ethereal. #Eclipse2024 #EclipseSolar2024 #SolarEclipse2024 #science #SciComm
