TURNS OUT, BARBIELAND ISN'T AS GAY AS S QUEER FANS HAD HOPED
We meet a gay chemist and a transgenr sports scientist who are changg the world of science their own unique Welton: 00:43So hello, I'm Tom Welton, and I'm profsor of staable chemistry at Imperial College London.
And what was g this dreadful disease, was, the discsns were very much led by gay men, whom affected of urse, at that time, ls was known about actually, n and do affect those discsns of the science self, and people choosg to do rearch to disver what was g this dreadful disease, but also, the translatn of that science, as the knowledge started to e to the broar muny was very much led by gay men, who were g people like myself, (I did this myself), who were g their knowledge of science and their unrstandg of how science even though I was an anic chemist, and not a blogist, and certaly not a virologist, I was able to talk to people about what we knew, and what we didn't was a piece of scientific rmatn? And beg able to expla that, and that activy was was, as I say, very much led by gay so is a huge posive, that those diversi of experience are brought to bear on the big one of the thgs which mak me very proud of the Royal Society of Chemistry muny is, you know, the first time there was a planned electn of s print, they elected a well-known out gay, many ways, if you look back to, you know, back to when I was startg my reer as a scientist the 1980s, that would have been so I'm hugely proud of the muny for dog that. So that we don't stop dog thgs untri where may be illegal to be gay, but that we allow people to attend or participate events there where they feel safe, whether 's through safe spac, or actually jt remote attendance, for example.
