Philly Pod
We stand together to promote STEM education, to support each other in all aspects of our careers, and to advocate for a fact-based public dialogue.
In response to 2024 Presidential Election, the Philly Pod Coordinators (Tanya Dapkey, Dr. JoEllen McBride and Dr. Laura Guertin) have written an Action Plan.
This plan will create ways to engage with your local representatives, how to effectively communicate our science, and how to share our stories. Subscribe to our Substack and the Google Group for updates.
Contact Tanya (xanderfirefly @ gmail.com) or JoEllen (joellen.mcbride @ gmail.com) if you are interested in supporting this movement or have ideas for other kinds of engagement.
We, the Philly Pod of 500 Women Scientists, stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. Black Lives Matter is about focus and not exclusion, and we support inclusion in all forms. In this time of reflection and catalyzing action, we have put together some resources. These resources are a way for you to help, not only with financial support, but to help educate yourself. We are at a pivotal moment, we need to lean in and make sweeping Social Justice change across this nation.
