I made a thing! Which historic LGBT+ scientist are you? Take the quiz @ bit.ly/gayscientists to find out! Bonus points if you can share your results and tweet #gayscientists so I can see if people are reading the stuff I wrote about 8 fascinating scientists!

Great quote from @tomscott: "There are plenty of times that "it just feels wrong" can be a good reason to avoid something. But air travel, something so far outside everyday experience where safety is so important, that can't be governed by whether something feels right."

What do you think about about an air traffic control tower built away from the airport itself? One will be trialed in London from 2020 & has been proven to carry no extra risk. Is remote control the future of human factors? youtube.com/watch?v=Ii_Gz1Wb…

Right, today we're starting with @JamalKinsella, who is doing a PhD on the interface between engineering and psychology. He also answers your random science questions at @sci_room ! Got a question you've always wondered about? Why not ask him! #LGBTExcellence

An evening celebrating the laughable and ludicrous ideas of the past. Join us this Thursday @WinchesterDC as we explore the notions that have fallen by the wayside of science, history and fringe thought. Because one day, your ideas may be there too.

A reminder that I will be giving a talk @wincafesci @WinchesterDC on Monday 4/12 7.45, entitled "Particulates and Health" (more precisely, particulate matter pollution, what is it where it comes from, what it does to us (and what we do to it), and how we can (or can't) avoid it).
