I just learned about the COOLEST program! It's called "Letters to a Pre-Scientist" and if you sign up, you volunteer to be a pen pal to a kid and help them get excited for a career in a #STEM field! It sounds like a wonderful opportunity for #ScienceMastodon to do some good in the world. The program is open to anyone in STEM over 18, all around the world. Please share this post, they need more volunteers!
Pen Pal Program Overview We encourage STEM professionals of all kinds to get involved with Letters to a Pre-Scientist! STEM professionals send and receive letters throughout a school year with a curious student.
Happy to see this out! Not only because Martin Petr's tool #slendr is incredibly useful for anyone doing evolutionary #genetic simulations, but also because it's been peer reviewed though a system that doesn't profiteer off academic work, nor impose paywalls on its readers!
Thanks Emiliano Trucchi, Liisa Loog, 2 anonymous reviewers and @PeerCommunityIn !
