Damn Leigh, this may be your best video. To all the haters you’ve got to think, “my god, what if she is right?” If you’re not following @IAmPoliticsGirl do so now.

When I was a community college student (18) my International Communication Professor paired me with an older, VERY handsome fellow student (30s) from Bulgaria. Our assignment? To teach each other about our cultures, then share what we learned with the class. TW: trauma

“Universities need to address legitimate criticisms with humility and openness. But the way to bring about constructive change is not by destroying the nation’s capacity for scientific research, or through the government taking command of a private institution” - Stanford President Jonathan Levin and Provost Jenny Martinez

French senator perfectly describes the Trump situation.

Just a reminder to the maga crowd cheering on these mass firings...

These are scientists. Park rangers.
Disabled Veterans. Humanitarians. Civil servants.

They are human.
They have bills to pay. Families who depend on them. Children. Many of them took pride in their work. Some were just getting started in their careers.

Losing a job and financial hardship is not funny. It impacts every member of the family. It impacts self worth. It impacts the economy.

Finding satisfaction in the indiscriminate firing of tens of thousands of Americans at the hands of a punch drunk billionaire is not only cruel, it's unAmerican.

This is not patriotism.

Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch.
President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.

OK, I'm now ~3 years into being a #newPI, and I finally feel like I basically know what the job is and how to do it. One important part was finding an organizational method. Here's what works for me! 🧵 1/

As an academic writing coach, here are the 7 mistakes I see supervisors and PIs make in the process of co-writing a paper with their PhD students or mentees.

#PhDSupervisors: The literature is vast and swallows students whole. You could help your new PhD student by giving them a reading list. There will be some key articles or chapters they all need to read. Get them off to a good start. #PhDchat #PhDforum #ECRchat
