I got on this call only kind of knowing what a zine was, and left thinking that I should get into zine making. Y'all should really listen to our new season focused on activism on the academy. Huge thanks to wangshuf and Taylor M. Cruz for sharing your brilliance.

As scientists, we go to conferences but don’t connect with the local community at all. Thanks to JSDavis, #BlackInNeuro will be hosting a Brain Carnival during SfN at a local Chicago church for the community to meet Black scientists, play games & learn about the brain 🧠✨

New mask bloc at UC Berkeley! linktr.ee/maskblocucb instagram.com/maskblocucb/

Excited to share some of my thoughts on how to establish your identity as a scientist, along with several other amazing scientists! nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

It is always a privilege to be recognized by scientific colleagues and help raise awareness of the diversity in STEM #LatinxAtlas Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx Scientists | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center fredhutch.org/en/about/about…

Wow! Thank you Marie Claire for recognizing me as a 2024 Changemaker 🤩 #womeninSTEM #LongCovid #MECFS #PAIS Yale Center for Infection and Immunity Yale School of Medicine

Early-career Palestinian journalists and storytellers can apply now for Logic(s) and Arab Reform Initiative / مبادرة الإصلاح العربي’s fellowship, which supports community-led storytelling on Palestine and its relationship to technology. buff.ly/3XQTsI9

It’s weird seeing this account celebrate BiN week while treating one of their cofounders (me) the way I have in the short amount of time I’ve been here 🧵

There's still time to join us for this afternoon's webinar! Meet this year's Virtual Visiting Scholars as they discuss their #EquityInSTEM research projects. bit.ly/VVSCohort7

BREAKING: A district court ruled that University of Maryland’s ban on all student-led expressive events scheduled for October 7 violates students’ First Amendment rights. This is a win for all of our right to speak out about matters that concern us.

The University of Washington CS school is an unsafe environment for women, so as grad application season starts, please tell your students not to apply. There are at least 3 men in the systems lab that have sexually harassed numerous women and they continue to do so.

As this has gotten some attention from people wondering why Rosalind Lee did not also receive the Nobel Prize, might be a good time to talk about the Mathilda Effect, wherein men receive the credit for work of their women collaborators... not sure that is what happened here... 1/

A really fabulous website by Sister! Why not have a read over your tea break this afternoon? ☕️ SISTER – A new STEM narrative (sisterstem.org)

The hill I will die on: STEM grad programs MUST teach PhD students how to communicate their science to the public and legislators alike. This is 💯 not a drill.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

The government censoring scientists is horrific. But what is even more horrific is that many non-government scientists and institutions are self-censoring themselves because they are scared of the government and losing funding. Authoritarianism wins when we comply in advance!

Tonight I found out that the NSF math postdoctoral fellowship I applied for is being deleted because it does not comply with Trump’s executive orders on DEI in the federal government. I’m going to answer some FAQs and share some thoughts about this ordeal in this thread 1/n

#DEI Diversity Equity and Inclusion. My lab's mission to cure diabetes is founded in these principles. We will not stand down even when those who say they are committed take that commitment back CZI Science We are making breakthroughs only because of #DEI my story 1/n

Must watch speech by neuroscientist Kailyn Price at a HHS rally protesting funding cuts to science. "Cutting indirect costs is like telling a football team to work with only the players. No lights for the field, no physical therapists for the players, no water for the showers."
