I talked with @fromphdtolife about deciding to leave academia, finding out what you want from life, and choosing the next career.

The misleading headlines go back to a misleading press release...

[Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf 🌏 🦣 @rahmstorf]

There are misleading headlines claiming „Greenland melting 100x faster“. But the study only concerns melt rates at vertical ice cliffs in contact with sea water. It has nothing to do with overall ice loss from Greenland, mostly via surface melt & calving. https://t.co/sPhCYlhdSq

More than one-third of the highest impact scientific journals do not offer to publish outsiders’ critiques of the papers they publish, a study has found. https://t.co/RG1WGI4ps9

[Adam Mastroianni @a_m_mastroianni]

People think peer review has been with us for centuries. Not really! Scientific publishing was always a hodgepodge and most outlets were nothing like our current system. Pre-publication peer review only became common in the 1960s. https://t.co/MUEYMhsWp7

Are you an #ECR looking to engage in science policy? We want to hear from you!

The Global Science Policy Network is conducting a survey to gauge the science policy priorities and interests of early-career researchers from around the globe.

Here is a comparison of take home pay. Under pressure from ECRs and allies, @royalsocietynz raised the stipends for those starting in 2022. They did not tie it to cost of living, so by the time it came in, it was still less than minimum wage.🧐 Thanks @lcsnz for the graph!
