My awesome and fearsomely clever little sister has just started blogging. She researches Active Galactic Nuclei and knows lots of stuff about space, black holes, blazars and ska-punk. She’s also a member of the Jodcast team and has done exciting stuff like interviewing Professor Brian Cox. So yes, read her blog!
Citing me
I’m non-binary/genderqueer. This means that I don’t identify as male or female. I usually use singular “they” (they/their/them) as my pronouns and would like that respected when citing me. If you like to know more, a good starting point for information on non-binary genders is http://nonbinary.org/

What is a mixosaurus anyway?
An extinct genus of ichthyosaur, so called because it appears to have been a transitional form between eel-shaped ichthyosaurs and dolphin-shaped ichthyosaurs.
This blog, however, is not an extinct species of ichthyosaur. It belongs to a PhD researcher called Kat Gupta who writes about things including but not limited to research, academia, tea, feminism, activism and LGBT & queer issues.
