Verdades e hipocresias ocultas -y no tan ocultas- en la comunidad cientifica internacional.

Equity in science is a beautiful lie — and I’m done pretending
Science isn’t really moving towards equity; institutions are just perfecting the appearance of equity. We need to build an alternative system.

Si quieren saber que es esto de la Invasiones Biologicas Marinas.... aca les dejo un video "Producciones GEAC" inspirado en articulos de nuestro grupo de investigacion ( www.geaccenpat.wix.com/geac ). Los errores son de la IA, los aciertos (si hay) son todos nuestros 🤓

We need to educate people: migrants are not an invasive species.
I often regret that we -scientists- don’t invest enough energy in reaching out to one another to discuss and resolve misunderstandings before rushing to publish a critique.

Cada vez que me cruzo con esta foto, me alegra el dia. Probablemente fue uno de los encuentros faunísticos más interesantes en toda mi carrera, y sin embargo nunca trabaje en ello. En aquel momento, no halle entomólogos dispuestos. Nativa? Introducida? Cryptogenica? ojala lo supiera.
