My latest @newscientist.com cartoon

A cartoon titled ‘The Life of a Scientist’.

(The life is depicted as a set of steps, three up then three down with a character on each)

Baby: Such a mysterious world!
Child: I must search for answers
Young adult: Each answer leads me to more questions
Middle age: ... At least I've got lots of questions
Old age: Ok, I guess questions are my thing now
From grave: Such a mysterious world!

‘The rallies mattered. But they are just the start. Being activated is one part. We didn’t rally today for ourselves – as scientists. We rallied because science serves the public. It matters to everyone.’

Somewhere in the U.S., there’s a scientist staring at their NSF/NIH grant application wondering why they bother. This post is for you. Science and society both need you. Hang in there and know there is a whole community supporting you.

I gonna keep trying to showcase that small questions in science are still very much real science. Just because the question and output is small, does not make it any less valid. We've gotten a lil snobby about how we define science today, more focused on size than content.
