Must also acknowledge the other reality - much harder now for scientists from #GlobalSouth to find jobs in EU, UK, Canada & even Singapore Now more than ever, we from developing countries need to more than double our effort to achieve even half the result www.nature.com/articles/d41...
nature.com
75% of US scientists who answered Nature poll consider leaving
More than 1,600 readers answered our poll; many said they were looking for jobs in Europe and Canada.

Our public servants - elected and appointed officials, civil servants - must be courteous in their interactions with us - colleagues, citizens, taxpayers - at all times, even in face of stress. We can learn a lot from hospitality - but it’s simply about embodying good character.
