Welcome to the UAW union family! ⚡️
@UAWregion9

[GETUP-UAW Local 5124 @GETUPgrads]

WE WON! This week, over 2000 Penn grad workers cast ballots. After eligible votes were tallied, the final count was 1807 to 97. It's official. The majority of eligible voters turned out to the polls. Penn graduate workers have resoundingly declared: WE WANT A UNION AT PENN!

[GETUP-UAW Local 5124 @GETUPgrads]

Update: we now have new, official election dates! Penn grad workers will vote to form our union on May 1 & 2.

After days of Penn admin stalling and threatening to push our election to November, it's official: Penn grad workers' union election will now take place on May 1st & 2nd in Houston Hall!

Pledge to vote "yes" here: https://t.co/G18muOOdIR

This is tacky, disingenuous, and embarassing, @Penn.

Stand with @GETUPgrads!

Graduate student workers at the University of Pennsylvania are seeking a union election, marking the third major organizing drive at the university in less than a year. https://t.co/YJkmciv8cg

Not Penn announcing a university-wide PhD stipend increase starting the fall I leave for internship 🙃😒🆗🆒

Not gonna lie, I tried very hard all summer to not mention Taylor in any of my APPIC materials…but she found her way into my autobiographical essay about five days before the deadline 🤷🏼‍♂️

[Ashley Balsom @AshleyBalsom]

I’m about to delete my APPIC autobiographical essay and just submit lyrics from Taylor Swift’s Anti-Hero.

One of the first research projects I ever worked on at Penn was published recently! Congratulations to @austinboroshok et al., on these super interesting findings!

[Austin Boroshok @austinboroshok]

@dylanggee Thank you!!

[Austin Boroshok @austinboroshok]

My first first-author paper is out today in ⁦@Nature_NPJ⁩ Science of Learning! 🤯 Through all my doubts that “Boroshok et al.” would ever be a thing, @ally_mackey was there to help steer the ship & keep me patient. Excited to finally share this work! https://t.co/fRof23VhB7

[Austin Boroshok @austinboroshok]

@upennedenlab Thank you!!

@benyerys Thanks, Ben!!!

Can’t thank my other co-authors, @anneparkt, @pfotiad, Gerry Velasquez, @utooley, @katrinarsimon, @jcpforde, @lmarielledr, Dylan Tisdall (@rmmr_group), @DaniSBassett, and Emily Cooper enough for all their help!

In our new preprint out in @bioRxiv, we show that variability in fMRI-based proxies of neuroplasticity predicts individual differences in adults' learning!

@ally_mackey & I are so excited to finally share this rich dataset + some fascinating results! 🧵⬇️

[Austin Boroshok @austinboroshok]

I want to see more academics/clinicians in positions of power- faculty, supervisors, DCTs, internship directors, etc- talking about this. DOING something about this. “You’re here for education, not pay” & “You don’t go into this for the money” are unacceptable excuses in 2022.
