October is the international month to fight against cancer, even though this is an everyday fight for scientist and patients. Today we focus on #BreastCancerAwareness both for male and female patients. #fdsc808

Taking a stand for science is important but it also can be dangerous in this world of misinformation where disagreement is combated not with facts but with violence. #COVID19 #FDSC808 "And however it moves"

[nature @Nature]

Nature has surveyed a subset of researchers who have spoken to the media about COVID-19, and found that 15% had received death threats. Institutions at all levels must do more to protect and defend scientists, and to condemn intimidation https://t.co/XDK8rN1nN5

Understanding that humans are not isolated from their environment when it comes to public health is essential to prevent and manage future zoonotic disease outbreaks. The next pandemic is on the cook out there. The question is how ready will we be when it happens? #FDSC808

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

"We need scientific collaboration, data sharing, and implementation...to boost risk identification, reduction, and surveillance in animals and at the human-animal-environment interface," say @DrTedros and @WHO colleagues on preparing for “Disease X” https://t.co/ifjdE3zmTv

This science #immunology issue covers new insight into immunocheckpiont inhibition for #cancer #Immunotherapy . #fdsc808

[Science Immunology @SciImmunology]

The new October issue of Science #Immunology is out! In this issue, researchers find that pre-existing killer T cells may enhance checkpoint blockade #cancer #immunotherapy; and that targeting white fat macrophages prevents #obesity in mice. More to come: https://t.co/dvNsyTHvAs

As someone who managed to managed to carry a fruitful extracurricular life with a success academic performance in class I can testify to the benefits of it. Science occurs not only in the lab. #fdsc808

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

"Extracurricular activities can be real time eaters and distract you from your research, and they may not earn you brownie points from your academic supervisor. But they are much more than a sprinkle of color on your resume." https://t.co/puttayLH35 @ScienceCareers

"North Americas value independence and Europeans value community" This is something that I continue to struggle with, lab culture in our universities can sometimes make it hard to cope with anxiety and imposter syndrome. #InternationalCoffeeDay #FDSC808

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

Here's a reminder on #InternationalCoffeeDay: It's OK to take a (coffee) break. ☕

"It’s ... helpful to have a venue to share the day-to-day ups and downs of life as a grad student," a #PhD student wrote in this 2019 #ScienceWorkingLife. https://t.co/xGI5dJLzdC

Facebook is here to stay and scientists should learn to deal with it. The answer to #sciencecommunication is not to step away from the platform, but to beat antiscience at their own game. #fdsc808

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

"One puzzling element of this crisis is how social media has been skillfully exploited by antiscience forces. Given all of this, what is the right move for science communication as it relates to social media?"

Just like with children, pregnant people benefit from vaccination, which also helps protect the unborn child from the effects of #SARS_CoV_2 and #COVID19. Never miss an opportunity to vaccinate, vaccines are how this pandemic ends. #FDSC808

[CDC @CDCgov]

CDC issues urgent health advisory, strongly recommends #COVID19 vaccination for those pregnant, recently pregnant or trying to become pregnant or who might become pregnant in the future to prevent serious illness, deaths, & adverse pregnancy outcomes. https://t.co/UmM8L5YSNd

Despite all the accomplishments in the arena of equity in science, racial and other forms of discrimination continue to be present and play a role in our work lives, whether consciously or not. #fdsc808

[Science Magazine @ScienceMagazine]

In an incentivized experiment in @ScienceAdvances, White Americans often overlooked accomplishments by Black peers, unless they observed them directly. https://t.co/mSXCgB9A7k

#Cuba is the first nation to start a mass immunization campaign against #Covid_19 in pediatric population 2-18 years of age with a domestically developed vaccine. #FDSC808
