@febsj.bsky.social is at the FEBS Congress 2025! Come say hello to us- we've already had some great visitors 😉 @febspress.bsky.social

Me as an author: I really want to wrap up this manuscript today so I can send it out to a journal before the long weekend. Me as an editor: I really hope people don't dump a bunch of manuscripts on me that I can't help looking at during the long weekend. I'm complicated, folks.

From student to researcher, a #career in #science can come with a high price tag. @drcraigmc.bsky.social ‬explores how wealth shapes opportunity in #STEM and proposes structural changes to support #equity and inclusion. 🧪 plos.io/4edGlY4

On the day we were awarded an #ERCAdG from the @erc.europa.eu, I want to highlight this non-science paper I wrote with ‪@deefitzgerald.bsky.social‬ on research culture: wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/9-341 Why? Because I'm often told we need to chose between excellence and kindness

Very happy that our SIAH1 article - published online in February - was now chosen for the cover of the new issue of the @febsj.bsky.social . Thank you @spartelab.bsky.social for the wonderful collaboration and the lovely cellular images. febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/17424658...

It’s so frustrating to see people hide behind the excuse of scientific & political neutrality. @royalsociety.org need to step up & show leadership by expelling a man who is not a scientist & is hell bent on destroying science. Otherwise what’s the point of them? 🧪 www.theguardian.com/science/2025...
