Personal news incoming… I became a research fellow @CCRI_UK today and can’t thank my wonderful colleagues (from CCRI and beyond) enough for supporting my development over the last couple of years - you know who you are 💚 #firstgenacademic
Next on our campaign is Sunny Shin, Associate Professor of Microbiology at UPenn. She says, "Being a #firstgenacademic, there is so much that I didn't know about becoming a PI & running a lab. I've learned how invaluable it is to have a supportive network of mentors & sponsors.
Extremely proud of my sister @heathercameronw for successfully defending her PhD today, an amazing achievement #firstgenacademic
Honestly, my greatest achievement so far is hearing my 9 yo niece brag to all of her friends about how her aunt is a “real scientist” and “does cool stuff all the time”. It makes me so proud to be a #womaninSTEM #asianinSTEM #firstgenacademic #ecologist and everything in between.
When mi familia asks how el libro que estoy escribiendo (dissertating) is going… #firstgenacademic 🤣🙈 #phding
Hello! I am #FirstGenAcademic , #firstgenhighschool. I grew up in Sicily. My parents could not go to high school, their families had no money so they had to work. I was lucky my parents always wanted for me an education, so I could have what they could not get for themselves.
a member of my lab this week learned that being a #firstgenacademic was a thing. i don't usually do this, but can i get my #firstgenacademic colleagues and followers to say hello? i'd love to show them a thread so they know they're part of a wonderful, amazing community!
Mentoring a #FirstGenAcademic student who got an interview at their top PhD spot!! Now what?? I'm not on any admin committees & my interviews were loooong ago.....esp in 2021 where everything is zoom😷😷😭...ANY tips, tricks, resources pls??? #AcademicChatter
It was an amazing privilege rockstar @DrMariaALZ joined our #WomenInScience @ucdavis seminar course today to tell her story #WomenInSTEM #FirstGenAcademic #LatinaScientist #Changemaker
What an honor to be invited to talk to future change agents! #WomenInScience and leaders like @Prof_R_Whitmer @MeyerOanh and @ucdavis undergraduates!! Thank you for the invite!
Yes I just did a WHOLE photo shoot with my diploma that just arrived!! I'm officially official! Take THAT 2020 👩🎓 #FirstGenAcademic #AcademicChatter #Wednesdayvibe
Copies of my dissertation arrived today! It was overwhelming to hold something that had been multiple versions of an electronic file for years. Also to know that my daughter will have this well beyond my years & KNOW that she can do ANYTHING! #AcademicChatter #FirstGenAcademic
hello all #firstgen and #firstgenacademic folk! here's a fun story of how clueless i was: when i went to college, all i knew was that to do cool bio research, you had to get a phd. and that required lots of school. so i thought i was clever (you'll see in a minute why i wasn't).
It's new tattoo day!! It has been many years since the last one, but I knew the "I am the storm" tattoo was coming once I completed my doctorate. #iamthestorm #AcademicChatter #FirstGenAcademic #tattoo
Let's talk about barriers to entry, #AcademicChatter. Keep in mind that, as a #FirstGenAcademic, I had no idea that their might be solutions to some of these issues. Where does one find that info? Some people who have parents that went to grad school? (1/
Are you a #firstgen student/professional in science? Are you interested in sharing your experiences with first gen students applying to college? Looking for speakers for a workshop series. DM if you'd like to participate! #firstgenacademic @AcademicChatter @BUFirstGen
4 years ago today I passed my viva and I became the first PhD in my family. This pic was taken just before the exam. Look at my terrified face. I was thinking to what alternative career I would take in case I failed. It went alright. #AcademicChatter #phdchat #FirstGenAcademic
Oh my gatos! Can’t believe it’s the first week of the semester already 😱… Year 2 on the #tenuretrack, Week 1 at @PittEducation 💛💙… let’s make some magic and build comunidad kitty gurls 💖✨#bloop #FirstGenAcademic #PittEducation
Important short thread. Placement prestige game can be particularly demoralizing for #FirstGenAcademic folks who already struggle w #impostersyndrome, belonging. Law schools should dial back emphasis on #elite placements for #faculty, especially junior folks. #AcademicTwitter
Have absolutely loved seeing everyone's happy news about journal placements – the best use of Twitter. But for younger folks struggling to break in, this can be a rough season. (Quick story.)
#CelebrateFirstGen #firstgenacademic #bluecollarscholars Proud to represent first generation students!
I still live this way as faculty... any other #FirstGenAcademic s find this habit hard to break?
Are you thinking about doing a Political Science PhD in Europe? This is a fantastic (and unique) event to get info on how to navigate the system! I would have loved to get such a chance back in the day - especially important for #firstgen #firstgenacademic. Check it out! 👇🏽
PhDone ✅🎓 Last week, I successfully defended my PhD @BAGSS5. As a first-generation academic, this milestone means even more. Endless gratitude to everyone who supported, challenged, and inspired me along the way. #phdone🎓 #firstgenacademic #phddefense

In other order of things, I'm sad I never had anyone explain what a pre-print is. I had that paper sitting in my folder for a long time until 2 days ago I somehow figured out this was an option. Oh, to be a #FirstGenAcademic
Where would you like me to start? #FirstGenAcademic
People from working-class backgrounds often say that certain aspects of the culture in academia feel weird and alienating Are there specific things we are doing that especially exacerbate this problem?
Mit der Kinderuni schließt sich der Kreis #firstgenacademic Mein Kind besucht die Kinderuni wie viele andere & bekommt den ersten Zugang zur Universität. Gleichzeitig sehe ich das was fehlt Frauen sind hier noch immer nicht sichtbar. Die erste Rektorin fehlt an meiner Alma mater
My ancestors were busy working in potato fields, blacksmith workshops, and retirement homes. I'm the first in my family to enter academia. Still waiting for that permanent contract after 15 years though. I wonder at what point I went off track... 😄 #FirstGenAcademic"
Nach einer Station im #Wissenschaftsmanagement bin ich für die Habilitation wieder an die Universität zurückgekehrt. Wenn ich jetzt so darauf zurückblicke, war dieser Weg aus Sicht meiner Herkunft als #FirstGenAcademic und #Arbeiterkind alles andere als selbstverständlich. 4/4 🤔
Honored to share this special @UNTFacSuccess awards night with my family and esteemed colleagues. So grateful for everyone’s support along my career path! I hope I can continue to make meaningful contributions with my research partnerships. #firstgenacademic
Thank you to all my colleagues at @SwissTPH , @UniBasel_en for the fantastic opportunities & support over the years & I look forward to our continued collaborations and impactful science. #firstGenAcademic #IWD2023 #WomeninMalaria #WomenInSTEM
From a personal perspective, today was wild! Wearing the same dress I wore to my undergraduate graduation (thrifty, I know), it felt so weird to be part of the academic procession and sat on the stage. My life sometimes, still blows my mind 🤯 #firstgenacademic
I’m seeing lots of posts about #firstgenacademic life and find myself reflecting on the value of #community in this role. Am incredibly #grateful to be faculty @UMN_CEHD @UMNKinesiology where we #celebratefirstgen and look forward to celebrating our stories Nov 4-11! #UMNfirst

No, because I didn't know it existed🙂 #firstgenacademic
Stay tuned as details get finalized for SJSU & other colleges. As a #FirstGenAcademic I never thought I’d be the one invited to share what I love-research. Full of love & gratitude as I head into the home stretch with my diss & dive into the #AcademicJobMarket. Mil gracias! 🥹💖
actually.. despite my grousing.. there are some mornings where the tenure packet, personal statement writing, starts to feel like something... like something i'm kinda proud of. #FirstGenAcademic
Because really who wants a #FirstGenAcademic with no journal publications because of extended legal battles during grad school. No one. So I left to make coloring books.
Diploma came in today, it finally feels official! Excited to see what doors this will open. #firstgenacademic #Anthropoloco #Anthropology #UTAustin
#FirstGenAcademic too! I know my family will always be a bit nonplussed about my fish obsession and really wish I was a medical doctor... And then there were all those years of postdocs where they kept telling everyone I was still a student 🥺

I was in a meeting with the program chair for my doc program. Mid meeting he said something cray, and I said, “Bruh that ain't going work.” I called that white man, bruh, like he was just some random. #firstgenacademic
Ya imma graduate college in 3 months with a Bachelors in biochemistry chemistry! #FirstGenAcademic #chemistry #firstwomantogotocollegeinmyfamily
I couldn't end the day I finished my PhD without a Harry Potter reference... #firstgenacademic #nerdfromthestart
I'm a doctor! 🎉 @clsebastian and @Gary_Lewis1 you have been wonderful supervisors, it makes a world of difference to have you both on side. Massive thanks to @idumontheil and @CarienvanReekum for examining my (long) thesis, it was a lovely viva to finish 3.5 years & the PhD 👩🏻🔬

I’m so happy to announce that I’m a new member of @TScicommunity 🌍! Since there are quite a few more of you are here now, let me give you a little an introduction about who I am and what I do: instagram.com/p/BxfBtAECUR7/ #firstgenacademic #WomenInScience #womeninSTEM #scicomm
We also agree with @mako4pa that eligibility for the Nellie Bly Scholarship should be amended to include @Comm_College students. @PennsylvaniaGov community colleges serve more low-income and first-time college students than any other sector of higher education. #FirstGenAcademic

2021🤯news: Starting as Assistant Professor @ University of Turin, Italy! As PhD & postdoc, I've travelled 5 continents, lived in 3. Now excited to go back to my homeland. A new adventure, the same old 🐝🐝 #FirstGenAcademic #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter @unito @OpenAcademics
