After a year, speaking Dad’s name, carrying his teachings – Winnipeg Free Press Breaking News, Sports, Manitoba, Canada

www.winnipegfreepress.com/briefings/af...

In honour of the one year since he started his journey to the west, I wrote a letter to Dad in my free @winnipegfreepress.com newsletter Biidaajimowin.

As a woman in science, I can identify with so much of this at different points in my career. Thank you for sharing.

Why women feel like imposters in spaces that value masculine traits The solution to imposter syndrome isn’t teaching us to be more masculine. It’s dismantling the structures that make us feel like imposters in the first place.

To dismantle structures that cause imposter syndrome:
- Examine who gets credit & why
- Value collaborative achievements
- Recognize that someone who thinks before speaking might have better ideas than those who dominate the conversation @shannonrwatts.bsky.social

Thank you- haven’t read this before. So appreciate reading about the women in science who came before me.

Remembering my sister Rosalind Franklin Rosalind Franklin died of ovarian cancer in 1958 aged 37 years. Sympathy and feminism have combined to give us her familiar image as a downtrodden woman scientist, brilliant but neglected, a heroine t...

Her sister wrote my favorite essay about her. She points out that RF would have been famous even if she'd never looked at DNA

Rosalind Franklin and the damage of gender harassment Spurred by a recent report on sexual harassment in academia, our columnist revisits a historical case and reflects on what has changed—and what hasn’t

Thinking only of Rosalind Franklin today, and what was stolen from her (and so many other female scientists alongside her).

James Watson, dead at 97, was a scientific legend and a pariah among his peers James Watson, the co-discoverer of the structure of DNA who died Thursday at 97, was a scientific legend and a pariah among his peers.

Before her (too early) death, the amazing Sharon Begley wrote this piece on double helix co-discoverer James Watson and the racist and sexist pronouncements he seemed to revel in making in later life. Fascinating read about a troubling individual.

3 quotes with images of the authors: "The truth is, no one of us can be free until everybody is free" - Maya Angelou "My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness" - Dalai Lama "I tell my students, 'When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else" - Toni Morrison

In need of some inspiration this weekend?

I use these inspirational quotes in my global health courses
