November 18 is marked as the ‘International Day of LGTBIQA+ people in STEM’. This day celebrates and recognises the contributions, aspirations and challenges that the LGTBIQA+ community encounters in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

The Out in Space group at the European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) and the Women and Astronomy Committee (CMyA) of the Spanish Astronomical Society (SEA) have joined forces to launch the 1st panel discussion ‘November 18: A call for LGTBIQA+ rights in STEM’. In this event we will count with the special presence of four great experts in STEM, who proudly represent the LGTBIQA+ community in their field of expertise. 

Karen Macías participates as a speaker.

New Podcast! Listening to Dark Matter

Edinburgh College of Art Podcast Episode 3. Dr Rebecca Collins and Dr David Cerdeño: Listening to Dark Matter   

Our Universe contains vast amounts of dark matter that neither emits nor absorbs light. While we can’t directly detect these invisible particles, its presence can be rendered more resonant. This episode brings together theoretical physics and artistic research. We learn about the cosmic silence at Canfranc Underground Laboratory, 800m below the Pyrenees, and listen to particle collisions recorded by acoustic detectors 2.5.km below the surface of the Mediterranean.
