U.S. Women in STEM - Australia 🇦🇺 will welcome you

A lovely woman asked me to help spread the word that U.S. Steministas are welcome in Australia. At first, this felt like a tough thing to write about. 

Because a brain drain of these amazing women will set the U.S. back so far…but you know what…FUCK  THEM ALL. They’re actively trying to erase the legacies and deny the rich contributions U.S.women have made in tech, math, engineering, medicine, medical research, astronomy, chemistry….the list of fields shaped by our women is MILES long.

So, STEMinistas, here are places that DO value your work and WANT you. Know of more? Leave details in the comments, help a sister out ;)

AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺: Australia offers Innovation Visas because they recognize that “ Global competition for talent is intensifying. That is why Australia is working to attract the best and brightest to our shores to help grow a stronger economy.”

GERMANY 🇩🇪: Germany’s Opportunity Card allows skilled non-EU residents to enter the country to find jobs.

BRITISH COLUMBIA 🇨🇦: In March 2025, British Columbia’s health minister announced plans to fast track credentials for U.S. nurses and doctors.

As we discover more opportunities welcoming U.S. women in STEM, we’ll share them here or on Threadz.

U.S. Women in STEM Manifesto

American women have contributed countless inventions and discoveries to the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics in the United States. You may know the stories of women like Dorothea Dix, Elizabeth Blackwell, and Grace Hopper. Join us and be inspired by women working in STEM today. They are being systematically erased from U.S. government websites. We won’t let them be lost. We are crowdsourcing - tell us your story! (Click the menu icon to send us a story.

A Rose by any other name is an aerospace engineer!

In February 2025, Rose D.F. shared that NASA had removed her bio from its website. This happened less than weeks after the inauguration of the 47th president. Introducing the inspiration for this website… Rose, an astronomer and aerospace engineer. Space has always been my joy and source of comfort, it’s been the driving force behind so much in my life, including learning the language.   My academic background is in Astronomy and Aerospace Engineering, though I've worked in Science Communication and leadership roles. I don't really like to limit myself based on degrees or titles, I'm always growing and learning. What drew you to science and space? “I enjoy imaging and actively photograph the Cosmos, but I tend to run around with my cameras pointed at life down here on Earth too. Photography in general has always been a love of mine, but most people just know me for my love of the Moon in particular. I've already accomplished things I never imagined possible, but a big g...

The First Black Women in STEM in the National Inventors Hall of Fame

In 2022, Marian Croak and the late ophthalmologist Dr. Patricia Bath were inducted into the National Inventors of Hall of Fame. Almost 50 years after the founding of the NIHF, they were the first Black women to receive this honor. Almost 50 years. Introducing Marian Croak and Patricia Bath. Engineer Marian Croak has worked on advancing Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technologies, converting voice data into digital signals that can be easily transmitted over the internet rather than using traditional phone lines. Her work has furthered the capabilities of audio and video conferencing, making it a practical reality in today’s world. In 1982, Croak began her career at Bell Labs (later AT&T) with a position in the Human Factors research division, looking at how technology could be used to positively impact people’s lives. She subsequently went on to work on network engineering, where she contemplated the potential of digital telecommunications. Rather than use a traditional phon...
