🎉 Huge congrats to Loyola postdoc @rishi30_sls and the lab on their groundbreaking findings published in Nature Communications! 📚🔬 Uncovering the role of CaMKK2 and ATR-CHK1 in STN1's fork protective function sheds light on the crucial link to cancer development.

It’s been a month since we made our letter to President Reed public, and ~5 months since we first sent the letter directly him, with no direct response. This silence has left us feeling unheard and undervalued, resulting in a complete loss of faith in the administration.

She not only organized the CCC event but also handcrafted cards of appreciation for every postdoc on campus, ensuring that all of Loyola’s postdocs felt truly valued. Thank you, @JaroslavaNKA! 🙌 #PostdocAppreciationWeek”

Thank you to all our colleagues for the amazing work you do! Without you, graduate students DON'T get degrees, papers DON'T get published, grants DON'T get funded, and PIs DON'T get tenure. Let’s hope @LoyolaChicago come to their senses and pay us a fair wage!

Happy Postdoc Appreciation Week! #npaw2023 #YalePostdocs

[MIT Graduate Student Union @MITGradUnion]

This is a major victory for our union, and it is thanks to our members’ stalwart solidarity. We stand in solidarity with the over 25,000 UE graduate workers across the country who are fighting to achieve the same protections that we have won through years of organizing.

[Loyola Postdoc Society @LoyolaPostdocs]

It’s been 7 days since our letter to @LoyolaChicago‘s president went public. We are advocating for fair and competitive pay for all Loyola’s postdocs. PIs are discussing it, but we’ve yet to hear from the administration. We’re waiting, and the scientific community is watching!
