In science as in any other field we should never let our ego dominate our thinking, decisions, speech, and actions, leading us to behave in ways that are uncaring, self-centered, or manipulative...it’s important to be a good academic; but it’s more important to be a good person!
If anyone thinks that what I and the science are saying is advocating for a political view - then that says more about that person than about me.
That being said - some are certainly failing more than others.
An amazing inspiring talk by Dr Ponnampalam at today's plenary session. What an amazing journey and an inspiration for all working in our field. #wmmc2019
