Again: if you are attending a meeting and start coughing or sneezing in response to an oncoming cold, excuse yourself. Or at least wear a damned mask.

Respect your colleagues.

At #ACNP2024, we don't say 'I love you' but 'See you at your Wednesday evening poster' and I think that's beautiful.

Overheard at #ACNP2024:

Person A: "Why do you think we got stuck presenting our posters on the last day?"

Person B: "Well, my poster isn't great. Yours isn't that interesting either."

For the record - that's not how the order is decided 😬

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this:

Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius.
If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.
