When women researchers publish, media attention doesn’t always follow

NSF today released instructions for the next round of applicants to its Graduate Research Fellowship Program. A key group—second-year Ph.D. students—is no longer eligible, and students who are still able to apply will face an unusually narrow timeframe. scim.ag/3KlQkQk

A young seal was found wandering the streets of New Haven, Connecticut, and rescued by Mystic Aquarium volunteers. “It was looking for clam pizza,” said a spokesman for the city’s police department. He will be named once the aquarium assesses his personality.
