“Jennifer was also invited,” Carroll recounts. “But when we asked if she would be a participant, they said ‘she could go shopping with the other wives.’ And we were repulsed by that sexist attitude.” ♥️♥️♥️

That's right. Worse than Pointless

Yes, indeed, a story we "know all too well"
Not surprising in the least but reminds us of the many obstacles still facing #WomeninScience that continue on despite some progress

I've become moderately successful in my field. The financial rewards of this are essentially nonexistent, but there is one big perk: I periodically get the opportunity to give other people an opportunity to share what they know.

There are several benefits to this.

Bear with me here. 🧵

Pervasive underreporting of harmful field interactions hampers intervention efforts - Nature Geoscience Harmful interactions are prevalent in geoscience fieldwork but often go unreported, hindering efforts to build welcoming and collaborative field cultures.

Harmful interactions in geoscience field settings are prevalent, and more action needs to be taken. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Original Illustration created by me, broken into three boxes. Two boxes in the top half, and one box for the bottom half. In the bottom box is an illustration of the Perseverance Mars Rover in shades of blue, white and orange. In the top left box is an orange circle on a blue background to represent Mars. In the top right box is an illustration of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter in shades of blue, orange, and white.

Happy 5th Landing-iversary to the Perseverance Mars Rover!

I made this illustration to celebrate the landing 5 years ago and it’s still an all-time personal favorite.

Photograph of a page from Charles Darwin’s 1837 Notebook B showing the “Tree of Life” sketch, which gives a glimpse of his early insights into how a set of multiple related species might originate by divergence from a single starting point. The bottom shows a common root with various branches and twigs emerging from different nodes, with labels from A to D. There is a handwritten annotation at the top, reading “I think”. Further handwritten annotations on the right-hand side of the image are thought to state the following. “Case must be that one generation then should be as many living as now. To do this and to have many species in same genus (as is) requires extinction.”

One of my favourite things about this figure (sketched by Charles Darwin in one of his notebooks in 1837) is the “I think” at the top. Beyond an illustration of his evolving thoughts on descent with modification, the image somehow captures the essence of scientific curiosity. #DarwinDay 2026

Last week, at a meeting of the President's Council of Cornell Women in DC, I introduced a room full of women professionals to the brilliant work of planetary and polar scientist Dr. Britney Schmidt in a fireside chat, learning about her path as a #WomaninScience along the way. 2/3

🎉 Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science 🔬

On 11 February, we celebrate the important contributions of women to the STEM disciplines.

This is, once again, like Captain Planet villain comic book stupidly one-dimensionally evil.

One on left is a black dog and above it the words “Reality”. Below it is “I chased a squirrel” One the right is a black dog and above it says “LinkedIn”. Below it says, Proud to announce that I effectively executed a rapid-response squirrel displacement strategy to mitigate potential yard intrusions. Humbled by the unwavering support of my family and local stakeholders. This experience reinforced the importance of vigilance, ownership, and continuous improvement. Looking forward to scaling this impact in future engagements.

Impressive writing and artwork and absolutely heartbreaking...
Kudos to the journalists who are creating the historical record of this dark time through the primary source material of this amazing children

“AI use impairs conceptual understanding”

I’m optimistic every time I see conversations that reject AI and stress the value of wanting your brain to function as intended

Are female economists treated differently than males in academic seminars?

These authors wanted to know whether gender shapes how scholars are treated when presenting research.

So they built a massive dataset of 2,000+ economics seminars, job talks, and conference presentations from 2019–2023...

I am trying everyday to remember, as MLK said, that the "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."
But for now, it is fucking hard. I have solace in knowing there are people like you still speaking for the trees. Voices matter. Stories matter.

💯 one of the reasons government funded science is so vital to any society

This is another one of the reasons I’m so deeply troubled by the fabulous new plan to just pivot to private philanthropy.

Billionaires will not save science

Beautiful! Mazel tov!

You want to go fast: go alone. You want to go far: go with others. You want neither: go with ecologists 😜⁠

Groundhog Day | noun | a situation in which the same usually negative or monotonous experiences occur repeatedly or are felt to occur repeatedly with no change or correction

We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.

“Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.”

Yes, the A/V cart!

I remember that day and that moment, in my school classroom
