I have been blessed to have been mentored and supported and befriended by so many amazing and brilliant scientists that I respect the hell out of, but learning to let go of the hero worship of celebrity scientists really does make it easier to exist in this world. (4/5)

NZ's govt has announced reforms to science funding just one line about basic science in there: "Discovery-led science & research will continue to be funded. This will sit outside the pillars & is essential for maintaining vibrant curiosity-driven science system" yea mate seems like a real priority

Early this morning, daylight saving began in New Zealand for another year. This is, I think, a good opportunity to highlight two Kiwi innovations: it was the first country in the world to establish a national mean time and a New Zealander invented DST. How did that happen? Well, read on... 1/20

We meet again. Friends will know I had a horrific encounter with this ethics committee member last year that delayed a lot of research due to fears about putting my LGBTQIA+ students in front of an ethics committee that condones this conduct. Much appreciation for this new complaint 👏👏👏

horrifying news out of NZ - "refocusing" the Marsden Fund to drop social sciences and humanities research and emphasize the trendy business interests of the week. short-sighted, grotesquely anti-scientific, ideologically driven. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

This is so backward 1. Science is more than just commercialisable widgetry 2. Making progress on our biggest problems (climate change, infectious diseases, misinfo to name a few) will need more collaboration between STEM and hum/social sci not less.
