Excited to be in Davos for #WBF2026! And *really* looking forward to this discussion of what to do about the lack of a biodiversity analogue of the World Climate Research Program. Please do come along and contribute - Wednesday, 12:00-13:00, in room Wisshorn! And please pass the word on 😀.

uni of aberdeen sbs biologists (and bonus morrigan the geoscientist) say biologists for trans rights! despite what transphobes like to claim, the proven science DOES NOT AGREE with them. trans women are women, trans men are men, and biology is much more complex than year 9 science lessons
6 people at the protest, myself included, holding various signs. from left to right, the signs read: "harry potter is shite anyway" "come ask a real biologist about "biological sex"" "illegal lesbian??" and "trans women are women"

It's driving me up the wall that legal definitions are increasingly based on (at best) primary school-level takes on complex concepts (like 'biological sex') which, I don't know, you should probably consult actual experts on. Also: trans rights are human rights; no LGB without the T(QIA+), ever!

Along with @lgbtiscotland.bsky.social, we've published our reaction to the judgement in the UK Supreme Court today. There will be more we want to say to trans people directly once we have a chance to catch our breath. www.equality-network.org/uk-supreme-c...
Graphic with a purple background. It reads: "We are really shocked by today's Supreme Court decision- which reverses twenty years of understanding on how the law recognises trans men and women with Gender Recognition Certificates. The judgement seems to have totally missed what matters to trans people- - that we are able to live our lives, and be recognised, in line with who we truly are. We will continue working for a world in which trans people can get on with our lives with privacy, dignity and safety. That is something that we all deserve.". The Scottish Trans and Equality Network logos are in the bottom right.

Research is under attack. Help protect it! Paraphrased: Most US science is federally funded through NIH and NSF, both of which are being targeted by the new administration. What's happened? The executive branch halted communication, travel, and attempted to freeze grants. Longstanding programs and proposals suspected of promoting diversity and DEI are being eliminated. NSF has been instructed to shrink by 25-50%. Future threats: every NIH and NSF employee has been offered a buyout due to deep future cuts. Funding may be decentralized to block grants to states, giving states that are "loyal" more funding rather than merit based funding. Grant reviews may be done by government workers who don't have the expertise or time needed. Take action: contact your representatives and demand protection of NIH, NSF, and all government funded research. Call the capital switchboard at 202-224-3121. Submit a comment to the House subcommittee on science, space, and technology. Spread the word. Learn more by following trusted scientists on bluesky
