Societies across Kent are collaborating on The Other Side of STEM<\/a> project to celebrate British Science Week<\/a>. The collaboration includes Women in STEM<\/a>, Kent Maths<\/a>, Bio Soc<\/a>, Chem Soc<\/a>, Kent Marrow<\/a>, Kent Space Soc<\/a> and Kent Marketing Soc<\/a>, and aims to showcase the diversity of people in STEM.<\/p>\n

A paper recently published in the Journal of Vascular Surgery<\/em> (now retracted<\/a>), examined the prevalence of ‘unprofessional’ social media content among young vascular surgeons. It detailed how behaving outside of the expected roles for young professionals in STEM fields is ‘detrimental’ to their careers, and still carries a stigma.<\/p>\n

In response, societies at Kent have joined together to create an online showcase of people in STEM, celebrating their interests, hobbies and abilities.<\/p>\n

The showcase is open to all studying or working in STEM, and a random prize draw will take place at the end with the winners receiving Amazon vouchers.<\/p>\n
