CAPS is in solidarity with postdocs seeking to improve their working conditions. Feb 22 – We wrote tothe Postdocs at Queen’s University to express our support for their bargaining process and share our recommendations. Read our letter here: drive.google.com/file/d/1lt5…

Will @queensu be the 1st employer in Canadian research history to lock out Postdocs? Support @psac901 during Postdocs contract negotiation, craft a statement to @QueensPrincipal to condemn this hostile action. #Repost to show #solidarity! #queensupostdocbargaining

Alarming numbers indeed - read more about postdoc experiences with workplace harassment and discrimination in our 2020 National Postdoctoral Survey Report: capsacpp.ca/resources/public…

32% of Canadian postdocs have experienced harassment. 71% did not report it. Source: @CAPSACPP

I'm at the @CAPSACPP AGM @CAGS_OTTAWA #CAGS62 this week. Come chat about academic biomedical research working conditions, mental health career prospects. The next generation of researchers deserve better. Looking to connect with those who agree and are ready for change.
