Women leave academia at higher rates than men at every career stage, and attrition is especially high among three groups: tenured faculty, women in non-STEM fields, and women employed at less prestigious institutions, a @ScienceAdvances analysis finds. https://t.co/5vw7yGYDMi

Right. Well, we didn't have any "beware of snakes on trains" content ready, especially on a Saturday, so we did the best we could for now.

But yeah...snakes...on trains...beware.

Incredibly sad to have heard the news yesterday of Ashley (youngestoldcatlady). She brought empathy, compassion, humour, and creativity to cat/animal rescue. Let’s all strive to make the world a little better as Ashley did. Hug your pets close today. #MentalHealthMatters

[Friends of Bear Cat Rescue @feederofcats]

so fucking devastated hearing of Ashley (youngestoldcatlady)'s passing. she inspired and encouraged me to start rescuing. answered my questions when I knew nothing, ranted with me. she was so kind. the cat rescue community suffered a huge loss today. humanity suffered a huge loss

I completed my graduate work at Western at the end of 2013. Since then, cost of living, inflation, housing has increased well beyond the stipend provided to current graduate students. Food insecurity and fear about supporting basic cost of living needs is unacceptable.

Excited to share that our manuscript investigating a “blood microbiome” is now out in @NatureMicrobiol

Amazing work lead by @cedriccstan & @minghao_chia and enabled by Singapore’s National Precision Medicine cohorts!
