Well, actually because I need an IPA membership to apply for money elsewhere so that my uni *maybe* won't have to pay for my conference registration at all. Regardless I'm paying money so my institution can save money, which feels like an #OnlyInAcademia thing
Agreed👇🏼I love the dedication, generosity, enthusiasm that, sometimes complete strangers, exhibit, you work together, answer a scientific question & become friends #Collaboration #OnlyInAcademia #community
Do you know what the most under-sold aspects of being in academics is? Collaboration.
Being able to work/learn from people outside your area of expertise & put together a project or paper that is bigger than you is such an enjoyable experience that isn't talked about enough

@BioMickWatson #onlyinacademia any other sector would be outraged by the treatments academics/researchers get.
Faculty submit several proposals per year. The NSF asks: How much time to prepare proposals? Choices: 40-200+ hrs. #OnlyInAcademia
I emailed a lecturer about networking with some LGBT researchers, found out she is on sabbatical in Mongolia for 12 mths #onlyinacademia
That moment when you spot yourself cited halfway through a question & answer it yourself 😂🤓🖒 @crosstrainor #SNOWCLAW2017 #onlyinacademia

I heard an academic utter words 'and 21stly' in a conference intervention today. A truly heroic performance! #onlyinacademia @philipjcowley
So far my 'week off' is looking busier than a regular week #onlyinacademia
