Colleagues are cancelling their US work trips. I worry that international colleagues in the US are at risk if they collaborate with us on certain topics. I've written a new post about the increasing danger of being a foreign scientist in the US. christinapagel.substack.com/p/trumps-att...

Yes, America has always done bad things. No shit. I was getting beaten by the cops for protesting those things while most of the qt-dunkers were still in diapers. My point: it used to be relatively safe for academics to travel to the US. It’s not anymore. Don’t do it.

⌛️The abstracts deadline has been extended! 🌍You have a couple of weeks for submitting your abstract proposal!

Donc Musk menace de couper les accès à Starlink en Ukraine si ils ne signent pas les accords sur les métaux précieux. Faut vraiment ne plus travailler avec ce mec hein. Faut se passer de Starlink en Europe et en Suisse. J'ai encore vu la FNAC en faire la pub récemment j'avais envie d'exploser.

📢 TENET@ @netsciconf.bsky.social (June 2) Speaker announcement: 🎤 @martonkarsai.bsky.social, Central European University, Austria "Static representations of temporal networks and what they are good for" 📅 Submit your abstract by Feb 7 (info here: tinyurl.com/27ntstep) #NetSci2025 #Tenet2025

Bumping this again! IT:U is a great place to work. Groups are very well equipped, the culture is perfect for interdisciplinary research! You also get the opportunity help shape a brand new university. Deadline is Feb 28, 2025. Get in touch if you want to learn more.

This is not business as usual. It’s not just a change in funding priorities going forward; it is the reneging on funding agreements and is profoundly disruptive for even those grants that will be found to be compliant. Meanwhile, trainees who often live paycheck to paycheck are going unpaid.
