Oh the thrill of the last minute fellowship submission #adrenalinepower

And what I find mostly frustrating is that no one is aware of this! Until you accept the fellowship and HR welcomes with a 'congratulations but...'

[Kathleen Beeson, PhD 🧠✨🔬 @kathleen_beeson]

Accepting a fellowship should not punish the trainee!

Yet @harvardmed changes the status of postdocs, from “salary” to “stipend” when a postdoc becomes a fellow, resulting in a net loss of ~$3k/yr in compensation due to:

Thank you everybody for joining us for our monthly "Get together" event! We had a blast kayaking in Cold Spring!
Are you an Italian researcher looking forward to meeting a group of exceptional researchers? Join us for our next event! #AIRIcerca #AIRIcercaNY #ISSNAF

Proud of our new plasmidsaurus drop box! Ready to send out all our plasmids for sequencing 💪 @plasmidsaurus

Strongly agree with #1. This is huge, especially when you get a prestigious fellowship and get 'rewarded' by losing insurance for your family. Also, whenever postdocs advocate for themselves, "you're a temporary hire" always comes up, perpetuating the cycle. Stop this now.

I'm so honored to share the news that I was awarded an @EMBO postdoctoral fellowship to study the role of Human Specific Gene Duplications in shaping the human brain in the lab of @fpolleux at @ZuckermanBrain @Columbia Thankful for the support and ready to do some cool science!!

Congratulations! 🎉

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

Giorgio Parisi – awarded this year’s #NobelPrize in Physics – discovered hidden patterns in disordered complex materials. His discoveries are among the most important contributions to the theory of complex systems.

[PLOS Biology @PLOSBiology]

Hyperactivation of mTOR can cause cortical malformations & epilepsy; @MartiProOn &co show that these effects can be uncoupled, and that mTOR hyperactivity in a limited set of neurons induces hyperexcitability in non-targeted, healthy neurons #PLOSBiology https://t.co/azRJfVB98b
