Rules of academia:
Questions are more important than facts
Answers are temporary
Models are provisional
Failure happens a lot
Patience is a requirement
When you’re lucky, hopefully you realize it
Things don’t unfold linearly
If there’s free food, get there early

@DautanDaniel Are you planning to send mice for a treck for next level ethological approach studies? 🤣

[Zisis Bimpisidis @ZisisBimp]

@DautanDaniel And this is exactly the problem, when the victims of such behaviors are not protected and actually paying the price for speaking out. As for your last part, if he cares about his family he should be more careful with his behavior...they should not pay the price for his actions

[Zisis Bimpisidis @ZisisBimp]

@DautanDaniel Sorry to hear that Daniel. The problem is a lot of things like that and people never get punished.. the lack of consequences gives some people the idea that they can do everything...

Some agree to review to know what the competition is up to
Some do it as a favor
Some do it to screw their competitors or enemies (don't tell me it doesn't happen)
And... there are SAINTS who do it to improve science.
Not sure that a system that's built on saints is sustainable
