March Discount:
Want to have some more fun in your lab? How about leaving ridiculous phrases and passive-aggressive rants on your lab fridge or white board with science-themed word magnets? Like any good party game, having a limited number of words introduces creative constraints. That's what makes it so fun.
For March get $1.50 off every Word Magnet set you buy with the code WORDSMITH! We're only allowing 10 uses of this code because we don't usually discount them. Choose from 11 different sets ranging from Chemistry to Academia!
March Resource - Mental health effects of wearing bad lab coats:
We all know about the safety issues with bad lab coats. But did you know that poorly-fitting lab coats can negatively affect mental health including self-esteem and confidence in your work? We compiled over 20 quotes from women in STEM who shared their honest take on how their lab coats make them feel. Please share this article with your colleagues so we can recognize the problem, discuss it, and fix it.
March News - New Podcast Episodes about The Lab Coat Project
I was invited onto two more podcasts to talk about The Lab Coat Project and we covered some interesting topics that weren't on the previous appearances. Airing in mid-March check out our episodes on:
If you know a single scientist or engineer who wears a lab coat and has not taken this survey, we need their voice added! It's only an 8-minute form. Forward this link to them and tell them how awesome this is going to be when everyone contributes.
Just for fun:
A legendary challenge. Prove thy cunning and be exclaimed evermore.
