Why does it also appear like the entire field is made up of men? Longevity/aging has a major gender balance issue! I know people will assume I’m saying this out of jealousy (it’s always the assumption), but I really think it’s a disservice to the science not just the scientists

Just to be clear—I’m not complaining that there are not women in aging science. I’m complaining that there are brilliant female scientists in the field, but they are just far less represented in panels, consortia, committees, and in the media.

If you’d told me I’d be on the receiving end of a vuvuzella whilst on a longevity panel with Nir Barzilai I probably wouldn’t have believed you… 😂

I successfully defended my PhD on the impact of ketone ester supplementation on performance, training adaptations, and sleep! Grateful for the four wonderful years under the guidance of Chiel Poffe and Katrien Koppo. Now open to job opportunities in and outside academia.

Saddened by this awful experience with PLOS ONE ~ 1year since we submitted a protocol paper & ~ 6months since minor revisions submitted.. All that frustrating about the science publication system 😭 It took us less time to run the study! Any help Emily Chenette or George Vousden

Dear nature, I am baffled by the monumental mistake about the "definition" of what lactate is, which is shown right in the 1st sentence of this article. -Lactate is NOT a waste product. Thanks by the work of Dr. George Brooks, It has been known for over 40 years that lactate is
