The authors of a Comment article in @NatRevMater make the case that women departing academia exacts a massive scientific and economic toll, and outline reforms to promote funding efficiency in the academic sector. https://t.co/ui3PzYYICq

[Mercè Planas @MercePF]

Very glad to share our work published in @CellGenomics! Especially big thanks to @eliasrfos , @anton_gh , @HaaseKerstin and J.Schulte.

@vdiezo @DDEA_Denmark @Metabolcenter @UCPH_Research Congratulations Virginia!!! So happy for you! 🍾

[Segun Fatumo @SFatumo]

Delighted to see this piece published @Nature .

Only about 1% of genomic studies use data from people of African ancestry, and those data are mainly from African Americans.

[Segun Fatumo @SFatumo]

The mistaken presumption that the genetics of a relatively small diaspora must apply to all Africans threatens to widen the health disparities between people in Africa and those in wealthy nations.

Dear reviewer, I apologize for taking longer than expected, but a misogynistic, homophobic, racist government tries to cancel democracy for good and we are busy fighting for our children's future. Hopefully we can complete the suggested experiments soon.

[Krishna Aragam @KrishnaAragam]

Diversity in genomic research is critical for the equitable translation of genomic advances to improve health. Please consider submission of relevant manuscripts to this special issue of @GenomeMedicine (co-edited by me and @SFatumo from @LSHTM) that addresses this topic head-on

The @covid19_hgi has released a manuscript covering the results from the latest data release.

At 51 loci we can start clearly mapping biological pathways involved in COVID-19 severity and susceptibility. For example, entry defense by airway mucus.

And from the original paper by Wapman, K. H. et al (2022): "gains in women’s representation over this decade result from demographic turnover and earlier changes made to hiring, and are unlikely to lead to long-term gender parity in most fields" #womeninscience

[Marta Guindo @mguindom]

Great overview. I really enjoyed the read! Thank you @queersprings https://t.co/bxi2mP2qzr

[Marta Guindo @mguindom]

What I found 'horrifying' about this article is that the author thinks science was a totally unbiased "endeavor predicated on pursuing knowledge and truth" up till now. That and that the article is a continuum of weak statements and half-truths.

[Richard Dawkins @RichardDawkins]

To the extent that this is true (and I fear most if not all of it is), it is utterly horrifying.
