We are paying $3400 for infant daycare at Harvard. In 2017 as a first year postdoc, this is higher than my post tax salary. It does not make sense financially to work as a postdoc and to raise a kid. You wonder why some women quit science at this point??
Replying to @sa_redmond
Did you know: UCSF daycare is $2800/mo for infants? 😳😳😳 A UCSF 2bedroom is $2779/mo $5579/mo in just rent and daycare 🤯 To afford rent, daycare, and everything else, I have a 2x90min commute and live 30miles away from campus. It is very difficult. @UAW5810

Not to swerve too far into hyperbole, but I feel that in my soul
Hari Shroff @HHMIJanelia considers himself comfortable in multiple disciplines. Perhaps a more accurate and honest description, he says, is that “I feel comfortable being uncomfortable.”

Gorgeous microscopy @cohenlaboratory!
#ScienceAsArt 🌈 A powerful imaging technique enables grantee Sarah Cohen to watch up to 7 different different organelles in a cell interact, giving clues to changes that may occur in diseases like #Alzheimers Parkinson's ALS
