Academics are paid nothing for peer review. Yet journals made a total of over $8.3 billion on article processing charges alone between 2019-2023. Make it make sense.

A timely reminder that the EQUIP scholarships are available to support 4 women from LMICs to attend the Joint Spring Meeting of the British Society for Parasitology, SSTMP and the German Society for Parasitology. If you're going and meet the criteria, apply at herminthology.com/equip

Interesting to see how big a player MDPI has become: taking huge amounts of money out of the scientific funding funding system.

This really irritates me. Have a look at the responses to this post. Say something faintly damning of our government and the bots and trolls come out in full force. How much does our government spend on bots to troll and gaslight citizens rather than listening to them?

You hold out hope humanity will rise up. That reason & evidence still matter. That being a lying, unsufferable, & exploitive grifter that has contributed to the deaths of thousands (mostly kids) would be relevant. Nope. But we fight on. #GoScience. 💪 npr.org/sections/shots…

Our community has been under attack as the Trump administration cuts federal funding and caps NIH F&A costs. If you’re a researcher, join me in supporting this letter and spreading the word about the impact these cuts could have. docs.google.com/forms/d/1Agzz5…
