We are stocked to have In2science mentor Annelisa (@RigoniStella) from @RMIT take over our Twitter for #TakeoverThursday!
Annelisa is a PhD candidate in Chemistry, who is going to talk about some of the things they have learnt during their past 8 years of study in STEM at RMIT! First up – my very first few years at @RMIT! Completing 2 degrees in Applied Science & Nanotechnology, I learnt so much about how the world around us works on the smaller scale – and also how to make cool compounds in the chemistry labs!

This year we rolled out the Mentor Leaders Program. In2science mentors were paired with STEM Professional Mentors to facilitate career discussions and filter it down to secondary school students!

Tomorrow we celebrate the mentor's commitment and achievements at @Toyota_Aus 🎉🧵 In2science mentors and their STEM Professional mentors will meet, network and reflect on their involvement in the program.

We then invite all guests to engage in a panel discussion exploring 'STEM graduate pathways - navigating challenges & creating opportunities'.

For #TakeoverThursday we have Stefany George, an In2science mentor and Biomed student at @latrobe!

Ever considered studying medicine? Hear from Stefany about her experience and the pathway to get there!👩‍⚕️⚕️

Watch the video: bit.ly/Stefanybio or read about it here 👇 Stefany is in her 2nd year of a Bachelor in Biomedicine @latrobe and aspires to be a doctor!

To do this, Stefany must complete a Doctorate of Medicine (MD), but let's break down the steps to get there!

🌟In2science mentor, Yanghan Wan, is studying a Bachelor of Science, majoring in Civil Systems @UniMelb 🌟

For today's #TakeoverThursday we are highlighting Yanghan's article that was recently featured in the University of Melbourne news: facebook.com/28418238495050… Yanghan moved from New Zealand to @UniMelb to pursue a Bachelor of Science as this course allowed him to pick a variety of subjects from different disciplines.

Yanghan felt @UniMelb was a great choice he was surrounded by people from different backgrounds, that wanted to learn!

🌟Happy World STEAM Day! 🌟

To celebrate we are highlighting some of our In2science STEAM mentors and their words of wisdom for the upcoming generation 🥳 Dale is completing a PhD in Chemistry @RMIT! 🧪🧑‍🔬

In the chemistry field, @DaleAOsborne mentions when he gets stuck on an experiment, he takes a break or switches tasks, then comes back with a fresh mind to solve the problem.

Dale would like to tell future STEAM students 👇

Today we are thrilled to have @CatrionaNR (aka the singing scientist) from @TheDohertyInst @UniMelbMDHS share what she's excited about for the future of STEM!

In fact, she's an In2science mentor because she wants to support young scientists who will one day take the reins. One thing @CatrionaNR loves seeing is more creativity being mashed with science. #SciArt is an amazing space and provides great ways to explore and engage more people in STEM - from songs & comedies to images & nerdy tees. She sums up it up in @museumsvictoria's 10s challenge:

🌟Ready for another #TakeoverThursday? 🌟

Today we have @LilyKenchEvans who is a student in @LIMSLTU @latrobe who will be walking us through a day in the life of a Chemistry Honours student 🧪 @ltu_researchers

This post is in celebration of @nationalmoleday (23/10) 🥳 As most of my day is spent in the lab, I start with desk work such as checking data, especially if an analysis has run overnight.

While you prepare your food for the day (🥣), I am creating a to-do list & preparing my chemicals for the day's reactions 🧑‍🔬🔬

In honor of #MathsWeek, we are stocked to have In2science mentor, Raskmikka from @Swinburne take over our Twitter for #TakeoverThursday!

Rashmikka is an Applied Mathematics student who is going to talk about how important maths is in our daily lives 🧮👩‍💼 @MathsPathway @GWOMaths Hi everyone, I am Rashmikka and I am here to tell you if you thought you wouldn’t use Maths in life, think again!

Maths is in every career you can think of, including my goal job growing up...an ice-cream truck driver. That uses a lot of Maths too! 📊🍦

This week for #TakeoverThursday we have @elowenamos, a geology Honours student from @SciMelb @UnimelbESPG!

Elowen is going to tell us what a geology field trip entails and some of the work that comes from fieldwork samples! 🧗

Perfect timing for @earthsciweek 🌏 In a brief break between Victorian lockdowns in May, I was fortunate to be able to do fieldwork for my Honours project 🛣️🚗

As part of this field trip, I traveled to the beautiful lands of the Adnyamathanha, an area you may know as the Flinders Ranges and surrounds 🌄

For #TakeoverThursday this week, we will be hearing from In2science mentor, @AulieTsee!

Aurelie is a PhD candidate who is currently wrapping up her thesis @PAM_latrobe @PetrovskiLab 👩‍🔬👩‍🎓

Follow along as Aurelie shares her journey in STEM! 🌟
@LTUresearchers Hi, I’m @AulieTsee and my journey in STEM started because of my love for food 🥦🍅

In high school, I studied food science and chemistry as I was curious about how all the delicious foods we eat are digested and absorbed into the body, and the science behind it all! 🔬🧪

🌟We are excited to roll out #TakeoverThursday featuring our amazing mentors each week! 🌟

Today we have @LizzieLieschke, a PhD researcher at @WEHI_research, and @UniMelb showing us a day in the life of a cancer researcher! 👩‍🔬🧪

Watch the video here: bit.ly/3ohlWtl 👈 Lizzie starts her day @WEHI_research checking emails, creating a to-list, and planning her experiments so they all fit in the day.
Lizzie is interested in cancer cells and how they respond to cancer treatment, let's follow along to learn more!
