Studies point to several reasons why fewer women than men are submitting their work

Gender equality in research publishing is a responsibility for everyone
A concerted effort is needed to support women in their choice of journal when submitting their manuscript.

I know of 13 studies that have looked at #fertility following mRNA #CovidVaccination, all finding no effect.

Yet misinformation that COVID vaccination harms fertility is *still* circulating!

I spoke to @sciencefeedback.bsky.social

Czech data doesn't show COVID-19 vaccines cause infertility
Fertility rates are influenced by many variables, such as age and education. A preprint finding fewer births in vaccinated women didn't account for confounding factors. Published studies didn’t find a...

I wrote a N&V about the excellent work Karpinska, Zhu and colleagues, from @mariekeoudelaar.bsky.social lab, who shed new light on the formation and function of these structures.

Researchers at the Crick have discovered that gonadotrophs, cells that play a key role in puberty and reproduction, have two different origins.

They found that most gonadotrophs are produced after birth, rather than in the embryo as previously thought.
