Pride Summer Panel #1: LGBTQ+ in SciComm / SciPol - a podcast by Bec Roldan & Geraldo Duran

Welcome back to My Fave Queer Chemist, y'all! This week, Bec & Geraldo share the recording of our first Pride Summer event, a Live Panel discussion about LGBTQ+ in Science Communication and Science Policy. We featured four incredible forces in the field of SciComm and SciPol and raised $140 for the Transgender Law Center, an organization that is working to advocate for and save the lives of transgender people in this country. All pride summer, we’ll be hosting other great events that highlight LGBTQ+ scientists in a variety of fields. Each episode will raise funds for a different organization in the United States that is working to save the lives of transgender adults and youth, which feels especially necessary given the huge number of anti-trans legislation that have been proposed in countless states in this country this year. Next Thursday, June 17 we’ll be having our second panel “LGBTQ+ in Industry” benefiting the Trans Women of Color Collective so stay tuned, we’ll be tweeting more information about this in the next couple of days. Stay up to date on all of our Pride events on our Twitter @MFQCPod!
