Ahead of our first bargaining session with Sinai tomorrow, we delivered an open letter to @IcahnMountSinai, signed by 400+ postdocs and senior researchers @rocsuaw, calling on them to agree to a fair contract. #FairSinaiNow#UnionStrong
6+ months into bargaining, @IcahnMountSinai still refuses basic workplace rights. Today, we delivered an open letter signed by 400+ senior researchers and postdocs @spocuaw, calling on them to reach a fair contract so we can get back to doing the research we love. #FairSinaiNow
Global competition for scientific talent is accelerating. Canada, China, and the EU are investing heavily to attract researchers just as federal research priorities shift. Now is the moment for New York to double down on investment in life sciences.
We had a great time meeting with @senatormattera about the importance of state support for early career researchers, especially in the current funding environment.
Today we stood together with researchers @murtha_kaitlin@WCMPostdocUnion@CPWUAW, students, educators, and supporters at the Stand Up for Science rally in NYC. This is what collective action for science looks like.
Rally with FUND NY SCIENCE in Albany this Wednesday, February 25th, to call for greater investment in public services for New Yorkers. https://t.co/QUaEbKTmSm
"Expanded state funding for biomedical research would help attract early career scientists, elevate research and innovation and keep NY competitive.” - Joseph Powell @WeillCornell
