.@novp , i.e. "the new @GeoffWillmott " is giving perhaps her first talk as @MacDiarmidInsti Deputy Director Commercialisation and Industry Engagement at #NZIP2023 on where the Institute's graduates go. Almost 10% to startups!

Heard in the #NZIP2023 session on Careers in #Physics - (paraphrasing) the physicist is the last person you fire as it's hard to find another one. In the (US) stats there is no change in unemployed physicists, even through recessions. So physicists are highly un-unemployable!

I am KEEN for this session at @NZPhysics conference!
I have always been passionate about helping our students see #HiddenPhysicist career pathways & highlighting jobs where #PhysicsGotMeHere. I am pretty proud of the @ausphysicscareer profiles (See next tweet).

Apparently stipulating that young school students should learn about atoms is a "a purist, siloed approach." Scientists horrified by new draft science curriculum rnz.co.nz/news/national/4931…

Just about ready to give a keynote at the @NZPhysics conference. Looks like it will be a wonderful meeting!

@OtagoMuseum, @MacDiarmidInsti and @DoddWalls us bring “100 women” to #NZIP2021 @NZPhysics. 100 women (in STEM), 100 words, infinite possibilities.
