@mlgredler MARISSA! Incredible news and wow what a cool story. So excited to see this in print!

Scientific workplaces, with mentorship from one faculty bringing in funding for many trainees, with that faculty having outsized control over that workplace AND the futures of those trainees, is SET UP for abuse.

Abuse, including sexual abuse, is rampant, and we all know it.

[joseph osmundson (all pronouns) @reluctantlyjoe]

I am immensely grateful to @meredithwadman, the journalist who broke the story about Sabatini and NYU Med.

I hope this is a turning point for our entire field: No longer can PIs who bring in grant money and abuse trainees be excused.

I want to very explicitly say that there is absolutely no contribution you can make to science, no number of people you can train, that makes your sexual harassment OK

[Anne Carpenter, PhD @DrAnneCarpenter]

Every year, most of them give up the dream of being a professor because there are not enough openings. Why is it more a tragedy for someone to “lose” their lab than for any of these, who are committed to making science a more equitable place, to never have the chance?

[Maria Bustillo @mbustill]

@nyulangone And while this report is not of a finalized hiring decision, that it apparently has progressed at all does not speak well to @nyulangone‘s perspective on training environments and who is valued in the workplace.

[Maria Bustillo @mbustill]

As a female postdoc at @nyulangone(frankly, also just as a member of the scientific community), this is exceptionally disappointing. @nyulangone really telling on themselves that they value neither their trainees (of all genders), nor a healthy & inclusive research environment.

[News from Science @NewsfromScience]

Biologist David Sabatini, who has been forced out of or fired from three leading institutions for sexual misconduct, may now be hired by the New York University Grossman School of Medicine. https://t.co/d6cGjY5MpU

[Melissa Cooper, PhD @MelCooperPhD]

Female scientists at NYU feel utterly betrayed today, myself included. Where does Title IX start and end?

If you’re willing to support the women at NYU, we would appreciate if this were spread far and wide.

Here are a few powerful Black-Led LGBTQ+ organizations and initiatives that you should support during this time, throughout #PrideMonth, and beyond. Created by @pfpicardi. #BlackLivesMatter

Never forget that Pride began as a protest to stop police violence.

It wasn’t a parade.
