A feature in Nature examines the debate among researchers over whether ‘disruptive’ or ‘novel’ science is waning and how to remedy the problem. 🧪

Interesting- I tend to emphasize the utility of LLMs as a tool- ChatGPT and NotebookLM have become very helpful to articulate some of my newer ideas. I think the ambiguity comes from the types of prompts individuals use. “Write my paper” is different than “organize these thoughts in an outline.”

This week on the Science Policy for All Blog, Chinaemerem Uju Onyishi, PhD wrote an essay detailing the progress made in the inclusion of women in clinical research. #sciencepolicy #womenshealth #genderdatagap #internationalwomensmonth www.linkedin.com/pulse/histor...

Nature asked computer scientists and bioinformaticians what advice they would give to researchers who recognize the need to pick up some coding skills but don’t know where to start. Here are four key questions to help you decide. #Academicsky #Compsky 🧪

Researchers in the US are seeking career opportunities abroad as President Donald Trump’s administration slashes science funding and workforce numbers, finds an analysis of Nature’s jobs-board data. #Academicsky 🧪

William N. Hait, MD, PhD, FAACR, receives the AACR-Margaret Foti Award for Leadership and Extraordinary Achievements in Cancer Research at the #AACR25 Opening Ceremony.

I couldn’t agree more that these grants are more important than ever. As a young investigator, I find hope in the creation of these essential grants as we face critical barriers in public funding. #CancerResearchSavesLives #AACR25

"It is critically important that we raise our voices in support of innovative cancer science and medicine." AACR President Patricia M. LoRusso, DO, PhD (hc), FAACR, calls on the #AACR25 delegates to stand together and call on Congress to make cancer research a national priority.

Sitting in the Opening Plenary for #AACR25 surrounded by over 21,000 of my fellow cancer researchers- scientists, clinicians, survivors, patient advocates #CancerResearchSavesLives @theaacr.bsky.social
