Getting to meet new Global Young Academy members and fellow chemistry education researcher @ChemFunMan!

Folks have been requesting this lately, so I am sharing it again: our uni's #AcademicIntegrity handbook for teaching staff. Customized to our uni, but might be helpful if your institution doesn't have one. This guide is #openaccess and free to download taylorinstitute.ucalgary.ca/resources/stud…

Reasons why I go on a solo camping trip at least once annually...

My biggest grant to date was brainstormed in a tent during a huge rain storm. I filled the tent with sticky notes as ideas flowed... inc the incredible people I hoped to collaborate with on the project.

Just a week left before #CUInspirED2024 Carleton University's Teaching Innovation Symposium. Join us on April 24th for a captivating day of discussions and presentations exploring innovative thinking and practices in teaching and learning. Register at: buff.ly/49JTJ2F

Very important steps in better supporting graduate students and postdoctoral researchers with better funded scholarships and fellowships.

Important next steps will be to raise equity for the rest of students who are supported by research grants.

With another semester ending, here's your annual reminder that teaching evaluations systemically disadvantage women. Even when controlling for grades and other factors, students (esp. males) consistently give female professors lower scores. This can have serious ramifications.🧵

📢 SPOTLIGHT VIDEOS is back!

We're so excited to be able to continue this project, which highlights the incredible diversity in Canadian chemistry.

Research is a public good.

It is a fundamental building block of our country that we all have a stake in.

It is essential to the health, prosperity, security and sovereignty of Canada.

Canada has world class researchers who help build a better future.

They need our support.

Check out this new podcast! Fantastic, especially for early career students and professionals in STEM, and those of use who work with early careers folks.
