It has been 27 days since @WeAreGAGE began bargaining with @Georgetown and the uni's take is that we don't need a letter of agreement. Well, we don't think DeGioia needs to make over $1 million, but he does. You can afford the ink to #putitinwriting. #hoyasaxa #gradhoyas

There still have been no charges in Breonna Taylor’s murder. It’s been 106 days. We cannot relent in our fight for justice.

Throughout quarantine, I’ve shared truly countless tweets with @kss_phd, @allisonoconn, and @PaigeBrooksBio, and we’ve lamented over and over how twitter, and the internet as a whole, is the best and worst place.

NONE of the @LMPD officers who murdered Breonna Taylor on March 13th have been fired or charged any crimes. They are all being paid as usual. (L-R) their names are: Myles Cosgrove Jonathan Mattingly Brett Hankison

What happens between dissertating and tenure that makes you forget that students are people?

Today, we will observe #ShutDownSTEM to bring awareness to the racial injustices within STEM/academic communities. We will take this time to listen, learn and reflect on our role in creating #racialequity and eradicating racism.

As our community engages in #ShutDownSTEM, SEA Change will be centering and amplifying the voices and experiences of Black scientists; past, present, and future. Share with us the Black scientists you’d like to spotlight #BlackLivesMatter

A big announcement for #WISEcrushWednesday! @kss_76 recently defended her #PhD titled “Characterization of Sox11 Partner Proteins and Interaction Domains in Xenopus Neurogenesis”. We can't wait to see this rising star continue to achieve great things in her postdoc and beyond!🌟
