So universities make research professors pay for their entire salary & research through grant funding, but then the university also takes a cut of your grant funding? Seems like you’d have to always apply for grants, so when do you do research? Is this why you’re all kinda grumpy

This really is the secret to wellbeing, isn’t it @DrJaneMunro @carrie_kollias @catherinecrock?

Nothing too highbrow. Just a simple
community of like-minded people where you are known and loved for who you are.

We can build this at work, though we can’t “e-module” it!
