🔈Interested in the long-term effect of stress on brain monoamines in females? We were! Our recent publication in @Biomol_MDPI sheds light on monoamine alterations in brain regions associated with PTSD in female rats. TLDR 🧵 on experimental design and findings below ⬇️

In #academia, being a helpful & generous person is a sure path to exploitation!

Most 'team players' I know have been taken advantage of &/or are underappreciated by their organisation.

It's not a great career for 'team players' who find it hard to focus only on themselves.

(CW: suicidality). Physicians have suicide rates 2x the general population.

I am a gay, Black physician who lives with a history of two suicide attempts.

This is my story.💖

So many thanks to @letswondermind @AshleyOerman for publishing this piece.💖

🧵 At yesterday's bargaining session, admin started by complaining about last week's rally. According to them, "The rally was not authorized. If the union sought permission, it would not have been approved because it was during finals. New sod was damaged by the rally." 🤔

'the twin in recreational state used #cannabis more often & had fewer AUD (#alcohol use disorder) symptoms than co-twin living in non-recreational state. Cannabis legalization was associated with no other adverse outcome...including cannabis use disorder"

happy may day to the grad students unionizing, striking and mobilizing 🖤✨

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

No graduate student worker should be living in poverty while the University of Michigan sits atop a $17 billion endowment. These 2,500 workers deserve safe working conditions and living wages. The University must bargain a fair contract immediately.

[Alex Parry, Ph.D. @SafetyWorkHSTM]

JHU also keeps trying to mislead us about how well we stack up against our “peer” institutions. All graduate workers deserve a living wage. Solidarity with our colleagues at Georgetown!

We're so excited to bring back Baltimore Brainfest this year! Join us 11am–3pm this Saturday (4/1) at the Cherry Hill Enoch Pratt Library to learn all about the organ in your head! Can't wait to see you there!

Alberta enjoyed learning about stress - opioid self-administration interactions at the #UFMedResearch celebration. Not pictured @purely_science!

Burnout happens not because workers failed to practice enough self-care.

Burnout happens because the working conditions that cause burnout were never addressed.

Junior faculty watch their labs wither and die for a lack of a $250k/yr grant while these...people...line up to give a sex creep fired for misconduct $25m. Sick.
