Advice to authors on using race/ethnicity @nature: 1. specify the categories used and explain why such classification is needed; 2. explain the methods used to identify people; 3. describe how they controlled for confounding variables, such as SES. https://t.co/jegDaIpkKC

Such an informative talk at @acmedsci this morning with Martin York from @en4ei about LGBTQ+ history and how to support our colleagues year-round, not just during Pride. Grateful to work at an org that sees value in EDI learning for staff.

America has turned back time for women's rights by 50 yrs, and women who are black, hispanic, have low SES are disproportionately affected. Donate to Planned Parenthood until 30 June and your donation will be matched @ppfa #BansOffOurBodies https://t.co/MVOTauAQ0S

[Planned Parenthood @PPFA]

It happened. The Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, allowing states to ban abortion and turning its back on nearly 50 years of precedent, but we’re fighting back. Here’s what you can do to join us.
