Looks like @acs.org is wrecking its DEI style guide. A month ago you could find guidelines for writing about gender or about race. Now those and other sections are gone, replaced with "page undergoing upgrade." As far as I know, ACS is doing this by choice. #chemsky

Disability inclusion in chemistry A collection to highlight an all-too-often overlooked aspect of DEI in chemistry: disability.

A collection of pieces highlighting an all-too-often overlooked aspect of DEI in chemistry: disability. The articles are grouped into four themes related to breaking down barriers (i) in the scientific community, (ii) in the lab, (iii) to studying and (iv) at conferences.

Iโ€™ve had that exact same thought recently. I think I was a bit younger. Maybe 12? My mom was out of town and my dad rented it for us. I distinctly remember him telling me I might want to look away when the camera holds on Karl hanging by the chain

Does this app do poop ID? This is a forested area in coastal Maine.

As a reporter I certainly appreciate a more understandable talk. Not that there will be a reporter at every talk, or that weโ€™re the most important audience at conferences.

Weโ€™re definitely eligible in more than one category. Chemistry obviously. ๐Ÿฆ  for Physiology or Medicine. Surely we can make an argument for Physics. Seems like it should be easy for the Academy to make this happen.
