The general vibe we are getting across #NIH institutes is deeply bleak — that the agency is nearly, if not already dead. Top people are leaving or have left. Nearly everyone's looking for other jobs. People still care about what NIH was, but are growing resigned to its death. 1/

Generational wealth includes home ownership. Public schools are funded by local property taxes. Education drives wealth and opportunity. This triumvirate fuels the opportunity gap. You know what doesn’t fuel the opportunity gap? Immigrants. Trans people. DEI. These are smoke & mirrors.

Over the next week or so, I will be sharing adorable pics of my dog, Cora. Cora embodies love while holding her own firm opinions. She loves stuffed animals and selects a different one to carry around each day. She loves chasing her ball or burying it in snow. She loves her double bed or couch.

Job candidates in methods for medical research - a key question for you to ask: Does the pay scale for this job class exceed the NIH salary cap? Too many people focus only on the range of starting salary. You need to know where you’re going.

Things that can be traced back to chattel slavery: - managerial practices - accountancy practices - actuarial principles, as applied in the insurance industry - payment models for healthcare services (capitation) - common carceral practices - modern policing - non-compete clauses

Our car starts beeping if it senses a person up front sans seatbelt. Because of this, I now keep Cora’s seat perpetually buckled. When I am out, she assumes surveillance position in the driver’s seat. When I return, she slips under the seatbelt. Because that’s how we ride. ❤️

For newly minted doctorates, names are tough. Should you use first names? Or stick to Dr? Talk about perilous waters. This is a handy solution. #HiddenCurriculum
The first time you email someone, do not address them by their first name. If they respond by signing their email with a first name only, then it’s reasonably safe to call them by their first name.

Learning the #HiddenCurriculum is critical for success in science (other fields, but I only study science) Hidden Curriculum is harder for folks from underrepresented groups to learn, and also harder for mentors who don’t “get” where we’re coming from. Let’s pull back that curtain. Together.

Writing a letter of reference for someone? Or (gasp) drafting for someone who’s writing for you? If you haven’t seen this graphic on avoiding gender bias, read it. Ref letters are broadly biased in both major and seemingly tiny ways. The bias is avoidable once you’re aware.
