Some exciting news! The Platelet Society has recently launched a new initiative called “clot chat”, a series of videocasts discussing important issues. In the first of these, and to mark LGBTQ+STEM day on the 18th November, members of the Society discussed issues relating to the challenges faced by LGBT scientists and ways that we can make our workplaces more inclusive.
You can watch the videos here plateletsociety.co.uk/clot-chat/
