My experience in discussing this topic is that there is very little interest among people about this long term catastrophe - perhaps they can’t relate to it somehow?

SCOOP: The NIH is moving to prohibit funded scientists, inside and outside the agency, from collecting data about gender, according to a draft policy I obtained. It’s part of the NIH’s aggressive crackdown on gender-identity research. www.chronicle.com/article/gend...
Gender Data Would Be Off-Limits Under Proposed NIH Policy
A draft rule would bar scientists funded by the agency from collecting data about gender identity, following other steps the administration has taken to restrict research on LGBT topics.

In France there's a "simplification" program where we shifted to a different admin accounting tool used by a wider range of institutions

Except that the tool is piece of shit wreaking havoc leading to
-Exhausted staff
-No accurate budgets since Nov 24
-Lost visibility of our indirect cost spending

“A startling statistic emerged in Paris last month: during the morning and evening rush hours, on representative main thoroughfares crisscrossing the French capital, there are now more bicycles than cars – almost half as many again, in fact.”

And it has kept growing from there.

I’m being trolled once again by the institutions of French research:

-on one hand I’m in the dark about my budgets & can’t spend them, have no office space, have to fix our broken doors, sinks, windows…

-on the other I am to gratefully accommodate USA researchers & figure out how to pay them

🤷‍♀️

But I hate being put into this impossible position, those who call for USA researchers to join us here don’t put money where their mouth is. Intellectual dishonesty all around

‘Course it does 😉
Well done, and well said

I’ve often thought, as an apprenticeship, the PhD allows us to really settle into our introvert skills, & thereby become even less adapted to many of the activities expected of us later

New study alert, just out in SER! 🚨

What really drives gendered occupational choices among adolescents?

➡️It might not be workplace characteristics (e.g., salary), but skill requirements.
