If a student you know received an honorable mention for the NSF GRFP, encourage them to contact their Congressional representatives! 🧪
Honorable mention here — they said this in the email:

“Although the agency is unable to offer fellowship support at this time, a subsequent announcement of additional awardees is possible subject to finalization of the agency's fiscal year 2025 spend plan”

I don’t only care about climate change because I’m a scientist. I care about climate change because I’m a mom.

Climate change is already impacting the people, places, and things that we love most. And who doesn’t want to protect what we love?

Hi guys! I have some new faces here and I thought I’d do a brief intro. My name is Jess and I’m a 2nd-yr PhD student studying the fluid geochemistry of hydrothermal vents (composition, formation conditions, export of metals/energy sources). I’m currently aboard the R/V Atlantis headed to

I have complained about “pay to play” internships on my Instagram in the past, I have a lot of problems with them

Buckle up because this is the most wild pay to play I’ve seen yet

There are about 27,000 scientists at #AGU24, and about half of them work on climate one way or another. Whenever I walk into a room like this, I always take a moment to take it all in—all these people dedicated their lives to working on some of our toughest problems. That gives me strength.
It is always mind boggling at how massive @agu.org is every year. This is just one session of the poster room, which changes over twice daily for the duration of the conference. #AGU24

I figured it would be fitting for my first post on this platform to be for #invertefest, featuring some of the commissioned work I have done for scientific conferences. Looking forward to drawing many more inverts this year!
