Exciting news. From 2027, @erc.europa.eu stg and cog now covers up to 10 and 15 years after you've obtained your PhD!

And it seems that already from next year's call, the B2 will be shorter, and the B1 and B2 will have to include different components.

If you are visiting the United States, having a negative view of Trump is enough to get you denied entry.
If this was coming out of Russia or China, we would deplore such an authoritarian attack on freedom of expression.

"I learned with concern that a French researcher" on assignment for the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) "who was traveling to a conference near Houston was denied entry to the United States before being expelled ," said the Minister of Higher Education and Research, Philippe Baptiste, in a statement sent to Agence France-Presse (AFP). "This measure was apparently taken by the American authorities because the researcher's phone contained exchanges with colleagues and friends in which he expressed a personal opinion on the Trump administration's research policy ," he added

Only small share of undergrad and MPP students will get jobs doing a lot of stats. And those students SHOULD take multiple stats classes and learn multiple different programs. For median student, I want to emphasize literacy and application NOT programming.

Abbildung zeigt, wie psychische Gesundheit der jüngeren Befragten seit 2016 deutlich zurückgeht - unter den Wert von 2002 und auch unter den Wert der älteren Befragten
