Wow! So many new people!

Hi! I'm Krystal (see also: @caffeinatedkrys). I'm a bisexual, disabled Latina. I'm also a PhD candidate studying atmospheric chemistry.

This acct is dedicated to disability advocacy, specifically disability inclusion in STEM.

For instance

I recently started a blog called Chronically Invisible, that aims to write monthly profiles on disabled scientists (past & present) in order to increase disability representation in science & engineering.

Please check out the blog at: https://www.chronically-invisible.com/

In addition, I sometimes make graphics that highlight reasons that disability is underrepresented in STEM in academia...

...and, when I have time, am working on a series called Disability is Diverse, which is made up of STEM-themed drawings of disabled people.

Aside from Twitter, you can also find my work on my Instagram ( https://www.instagram.com/chronically.invisible/)

Anyway, I probably forgot something, but I guess I can always add to this thread later.

I'll end this by saying that I'm so grateful I've found the #DisabilityTwitter, #DisabledInSTEM, & other related communities, & thankful for all the support I've received so far.
