Before this study I genuinely thought that the gender pay gap in academia was down to an imbalance in seniority, but we found that even starting the same junior positions, women are paid slightly less... #careers #NewPI @MRC_LMCB Robertus de Bruin Prof Sara Mole nature.com/articles/d4158…

Hi Brits, deadline to register to vote is 26th November. Please tell your undergrads and whoever else might need to hear! Overseas ppl (like me) can nominate a proxy - don’t rely on a postal vote (they come too late to mail back)

Here's my take on short-termism in science, non-linear careers, and rewarding a more diverse set of skills. Credit must go to @roobina who interviewed me and wrote the article: We need to invest in researchers in the long-term Wellcome wellcome.ac.uk/news/we-need-i…

Thanks to the good people at the The Guardian for getting this up so quick. Will be switching my focus to elsewhere for a while. It’s a pandemic, that means it’s not just happening in the U.K. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
