Cell biology is producing mountains of microscopy data, usually a given paper got that data for some purpose, but what if you could find relevant data that you could use to answer your own questions? in her new preprint, @marymirvis.bsky.social develops Systematic Review methods to do just that

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals. So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/4328LAD

We were in Rwanda at the International Conference on #NTD #Research in #Africa to share and learn more about the ever-growing knowledge on NTDs. #InCORNTD is always a great time meeting with friends and collaborators in the #schistosomiasis 🪱 research space 🧪

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Oh. Trump has been in office one day and is making a terrifying statement on how he is going to run things. Especially on science and gender rights. Urgh. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The new president signed decrees designed to shift the US government’s stance on climate and public health.

This is a really interesting read about the gender bias in academia retention - specifically post-PhD. Apparently women are more likely than men to leave as they feel pushed out or disrespected. And this gender gap gets worse with seniority. 🧪
