Such a great conference for trainees and early career scientists.
Going back for the first time last year (since leaving the Midwest) this conference felt like home. Such a wonderful supportive DNA repair community.
Awesome science and even better people!!
Congrats on the position!
I know people who got perfect scores on their GRE (mostly because they bragged about it constantly)…They would have been horrible professors.
Congrats! Nice to see this in print!
you can acknowledge contributions to science AND also acknowledge he was not a good person. This is not nuanced. He told you he was on a regular basis, believe him.
Given recent events, I do not have faith the university I work for will not sign this. And likely without faculty knowing they did.
So sad. I had to email my very talented 2nd year grad student to let her know the app she has been working on cannot be submitted 😢😭
Woohoo! Congrats, Bret!
It has been one of the harder weeks at work so far. This is a great article that clearly describes my viewpoints on the manner. We are all angry and afraid right now.

That is horrible and I agree is rubbish. For our TPR, we are asked to define our contribution on multi-lab papers (only if we are not co-corresponding). But having multiple people from your lab as authors was always a positive.
😢 RIP. Still to this day my favorite experiment in molecular biology.
This! This is how I review papers.
We are the only ones that can fix this and stop asking for a lot of unnecessary experiments.
I will say the last few manuscripts we have submitted have been reviewed this way as well.
And yes I do talk about the public about why science matters. Often. Just usually in small group setting or one on one conversations. And occasionally promotion videos by the uni communication office
This! i cringe every time I read that this is scientist’s fault because we don’t have spend more time convincing the public why our science matters. 1) I am socially awkward. 2) we have an office at the uni for that 3) I already don’t have enough time to do the other 19 jobs my job entails.
Haha. Someone stopped me in the store today because I had a Michigan shirt on. They are also from Michigan. 😂
😢
Yes!! One of the best pieces of advice I received as an Asst Prof is “The institution will never love you back”.
Congrats Mark!
She gave a fantastic talk! Congrats!
I forgot to take a picture of Zane giving his first talk 😢
Same! And still so cool.
I hope this ends his career.
An amazing, custom made, going away present from two undergraduates (twins). Can’t wait to get it hung in my office!!
Very great read! Share widely esp to non-scientist friends.
Beautifully said. Thank you for writing this!
I really hope leadership stands up soon!
Not surprised. Complying will not work. The goal is to destroy. My heart breaks for all my colleagues at Columbia.
This is very red Seneca, SC. The support from passing vehicles was amazing! #Handsoff
We are being investigated (state school) so I am guessing (not surprised though) the attacks are going to spread.
I agree with all your points.
