On sexual harassment allegations made of Boris Johnson’s father, Nadine Dorries said “I don’t believe it happened. It never happened to me. Perhaps there is something wrong with me.” Let’s unpack why this is so dangerous:
1) Tweet redo - Freedom of Information data received from UKRI - without typos! In 2019/2020 the UK's Largest funder @UKRI_News awarded £1,684,402,000 to 2715 individuals as Principal Investigators (PIs). Just 25 identified as Black.
Another bland answer from Michelle Donelan on tackling sexual harassment in HE, repeating what we already know, and what hasn't worked. theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2021…
From the article... "Women are more likely to discuss authorship with co-authors at the beginning of the project while men are more likely to do so once a manuscript is ready to submit as well as deciding authorship positions without team consultation." - we reccomend a read!

"A ton of feathers is still a ton" "... he brings a lot of money to the department". @PictureaSciFilm #PictureaScientist. @UnbalancedSTEM @uclchemeng Not what I pictured about the film. So deeply hited!
If you have watched the film this weekend, consider contributing to the poll over on #AcademicChatter
Weekend plans sorted #PictureAScientist
Woke early so watched #PictureaScientist. What a sobering and brilliantly told story story of sexual harassment within STEM - but ultimately heartening because things are slowly changing. Congrats @PictureaSciFilm
Just watched the documentary #PictureAScientist. Infuriating, emboldening and extremely candid, if you get the opportunity to watch, I would HIGHLY recommend
"A ton of feathers is still a ton" Thanks a lot @uclchemeng for screening an incredible film "Picture a scientist" @PictureaSciFilm! @UnbalancedSTEM #pictureascientist #worthwatching
Wow #PictureAScientist is so powerful and inspiring. A must-watch documentary for anyone working on gender equality in academia. Thanks @UnbalancedSTEM for making this virtual viewing happen!
