Instead of working with us to reach a fair agreement, Mount Sinai is trying to take away our rights. But we are ready to keep fighting for the contract we deserve.

Global competition for scientific talent is accelerating. Canada, China, and the EU are investing heavily to attract researchers just as federal research priorities shift. Now is the moment for New York to double down on investment in life sciences. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
