@standupforscience.net makes it easy to stand up for science! We all must join the fight to make sure the scientific infrastructure that has improved all of our lives survives! If not for yourself, do it for your children and your children’s children. Losing ground in science means losing lives.

Still working on my public comment but this @standupforscience.net tool made it really easy for me to contact my members of Congress about the Voght rule to destroy the scientific enterprise: fight2win.standupforscience.net?utm_source=o...

Congratulations to @cdelawalla.bsky.social who is one of the bravest people I know. As a graduate student she did not stand by but proactively stood up and founded @standupforscience.net and has been a champion for us all. We have a lot to learn from this remarkable young scientist.

Kudos to @cdelawalla.bsky.social for being 1 of just 5 ‘young scientists’ profiled as ‘on the radar’ in this @sciam.bsky.social piece. @standupforscience.net

So-called “soft skills” include knowing how to ask a question, figure out how to answer it, gather the appropriate sources, analyze the information and decide on a viable answer and plan, almost always in collaboration with others. This is the heart of a liberal arts education, whatever your major.

"Learn to code" was always bad advice, unless you actually like to code. College students have the best chance of professional success if they major in topics that interest them. Today in @startribune.com. Please tell high school students and parents. www.startribune.com/what-should-...

The academic publishing system is broken. Academics provide the free content and labor to review and are dependent on this for tenure and promotion while private companies make the money! We have the power to change the system by changing criteria for hiring, tenure and promotion. #AcademicSky.

I have a coauthored paper under review for 9 months. Coauthor is on tenure track. No way to get a hold of the editors. If we do not manage our expectations on tenure review committees, we will lose talent. It's not their fault! #EconSky #AcademicSky
