Best hair in the room for once! 😁Had so much fun with a Van de Graaff generator earlier this week, last time was about 20 years ago in Paris at the Palais de la Decouverte. And obvs listening now on repeat my favourite songs of Van der Graaff Generator and Peter Hammill like in my Uni days 🎶

This week I attended two EDI events: in Leeds discussing findings on gendered microaggressions in CS and in Sheffield learning from EDI leaders on Athena SWAN Gold in Chemistry at York and CS at UCL, and EPSRC’s EDI strategy. It was great to network with like-minded peers and EDI leaders in STEM!
