@womeninsciencepdx.bsky.socialWhat if women in STEM didn't have to do it all alone? 💚
Mentorship and community can make a lasting difference. But support shouldn't stop there. We also need workplaces that create equitable opportunities.
Who's made a difference in your STEM journey? 💬

@womeninsciencepdx.bsky.socialWhat if we’ve been measuring the wrong thing? 👀
Instead of asking whether women produce as much science, what if we asked who gets credit, who gets supported long enough to stay + what science loses when they leave?
💬 What needs to change?

When decision-makers share similar perspectives, “the best idea won” may deserve more scrutiny.
💬 Where have you seen groupthink shape which ideas get heard?
