Trans masculinities, embodied geographies and the River Neath
by Asmae Ourkiya on June 25, 2025 at 12:00 pm
How do our environments shape who we are? How do we shape them? Most people have a place (or places) that they know or love so deeply it feels inextricable from themselves. A place they keep coming back to over time, maybe even after years of resisting it. For me, it’s the River Neath in South Wales, which rises on the slopes of Fan Gyhirych […]
Can seabed mapping help restore our blue planet?
by Asmae Ourkiya on June 20, 2025 at 10:00 am
Some humans are racing to map the moon, Mars, and the stars, yet the very ground beneath our oceans remains largely unknown. What does it say about us, that we can chart the craters of distant planets before we bother to understand the seafloor that feeds us, cools us, and regulates our climate? In an age of climate breakdown, ecological collapse, […]

Pride Month: support your LGBTQ+ colleagues in science
by Simon Clark on June 10, 2025 at 12:00 pm
Imagine this: you are at work, casually discussing your weekend plans with colleagues. One is planning a hike with her husband. Another jokes about meeting his girlfriend’s parents for dinner, nerves barely concealed. Then you mention a date night with your partner. The conversation halts. The atmosphere becomes taut. One of your colleagues […]
