Did you know that our health is closely related to animal welfare and the state of the environment around us? 🐾🌿

The panel discussion "One Health", with the participation of Nana Bit-Avragim (@EITHealth), Conchi Novillo (@Bayer4CropsES @bayer), Camila Gaspar (@iGEMStartups), Julia Gil (@provegES), moderated by Begoña de Frutos, addressed the risks of #plastics for the environment and health, #transgenicagriculture, the impact of artificial intelligence on #healthcare and #personalisedmedicine. 🧬💊🌱

@EstOdek @phdvoice #phdvoice I would RT ALL of them! 👩🏾‍🔬👨🏿‍🔬💯🙌🏼

LOVE this thread👩🏿‍🔬👨🏿‍🔬💯 amazing research done by amazing people!

[Dr Esther Odekunle @EstOdek]

I get many messages from aspiring black scientists who say they hardly see scientists that look like them online/IRL. So I want to spend time highlighting black scientists, medics, engineers, mathematicians and techies! Introduce yourselves below & I’ll be retweeting👨🏾‍🎓👩🏿‍🔬👩🏽‍🏫👨🏿‍🏭🧪🔭

What’s the need for a UK #BlackLivesMatter movement? There isn’t any racism, institutional bias or oppression in the UK? Just bandwagonning? An excuse to make noise and go outdoors?

A thread.

@dcozkocak @PhDVoice @BioRender Perfect skill to pick up during lockdown! Strongly recommend it! I recently found out that GraphPad Prism has a bunch of free online courses https://t.co/R87ZzRYqFb. Thought it may help!

[Camila Quinonez @biochemila]

@dcozkocak @PhDVoice Hey! Depends on figure, but I use GraphPad prism for graphs, @BioRender, Canva and Adobe Illustrator for making diagrams! There is also Tableau for data viz! Hope it helps x

"Many are grappling with an overwhelming sense of uncertainty about how they’ll continue their work."

More testimonies of the impact that #COVID19 is causing in early researchers' careers #phdchat #phdvoice

[Camila Quinonez @biochemila]

PhD is already challenging on its own. But we now face a future full with uncertainties. Having to “carry on” with our research without funding reassurance is worrisome (to say the least). Thanks @GoldstoneRoss for vocalising our concerns! #phdchat

[Times Higher Education @timeshighered]

PhD students need better protection from Covid-19: the lockdown is affecting not only final-year students, and, says Ross Goldstone, without a blanket funding extension, many others will suffer and drop out

"You are not working from home; you are at your home during a crisis trying to work."

I've heard this twice today. I think it's an important distinction worth emphasising.
