I need to acknowledge our director of grad studies @GregoryRSL for treating all students—current, past, accepted, & rejected—with the kindness that academia can so sadly lack. He’s going viral on Reddit for his thoughtful rejection letters, & I hope other programs follow suit.
Congratulations to Dr. Sharon Straus, St. Michael’s Hospital physician-in-chief and scientist, who has been named the 4th best female scientist in Canada by https://t.co/3iaJZrahFK! Straus was also ranked 123rd in the world. 👏👏👏https://t.co/2VzH81l0NA
I’d imagine every head of research in universities and hospitals across Canada feels the same. What would have been a relatively tiny federal investment would have led to a living wage for so many. Grad student & postdoc awards are unchanged since 2003 ! How is that OK !
