UNIGE press release on G. #Salbreux and @AissamIkmi last publication in @CellCellPress : Mechanical forces drive the diversity of life @genevunige @sciences_UNIGE

Graduate students increasingly use artificial-intelligence tools to draft, code and search — but many fear it could erode the very skills a doctorate is meant to build go.nature.com/4sPERJH

Registration is now open for early-career researchers to apply for a funded place at our Workshop on Revisiting Metabolic Fundamentals, organised by @lydfinley& @WilhelmPalm. Find out more and apply at biologists.com/workshops/apr… #BiologistsWorkshops

A recent survey of nearly 900 postdocs at the Max Planck Society reveals: 🔹 28% show signs of severe depression 🔹 25% struggle with severe anxiety 🔹 More than half oppose contract caps that force them out after 4–6 years 🔹 International researchers (75% of the cohort) face extra hurdles: bureaucracy, language barriers, even bullying Postdocs carry much of the research load, yet remain overworked, undervalued, and uncertain about their future. If global research institutions can’t retain talent, support mental health, and offer real career pathways, how sustainable is the system? Link to the Nature article: f.mtr.cool/amjakpixqx

Being a postdoc is wild, you can: – Teach a PhD how to pipette -“Interesting, it broke in a new way this time” – Fix a $500k microscope – PI: “Sorry just saw this” (sent 3 months ago) – Present at a conference on 1 hour of sleep – Cry in 3 languages! #postdoclife #Science

Today, 166 years ago Alexander von Humboldt died (he was 89 years). He changed the way we think about nature (describing it as a web of life) & predicted climate change. Can't believe it's been 10 years since I published 'Invention of Nature'. It's change my life. In so many ways
