Pride in STEM
Pride in STEM is a UK-based charitable trust supporting LGBT+ scientists internationally, co-founded in 2016 by Alfredo Carpineti, an astrophysicist at the University of Cambridge, his husband Chris, and Matt Young, a researcher at the University of Nottingham. Its origins, prior to registration as a charitable trust, were as a marching group for the parade at Pride in London. Ben Britton, one of the organisation's trustees, wrote in 2019 that the organisation's "informal mantra is to queer up science spaces and science up queer spaces". "STEM" is an acronym for "science, technology, engineering and maths/medicine".
