Lmao! I concur.
I think my transdisciplinary projects are my fave. New Review promoting a new path in NDD research. Bacterial immunomodulatory structures as determinants of the maternal immune response and autism risk. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
I have LLM and AI fatigue.

Thank you for seeing us, love this.
Yes there are lots of keyboard warriors out there. It's easier when the person isn't in front of you.
I'm lucky, no one has done this directly to my face. Or should I say, they're lucky.
That's just awful. 😞
I usually start submitting these 2-2.5 years before my existing grant finishes. If this keeps up I will have to start submitting as soon as it's approved. 5 years ahead. So mad at Carney for investing in international researchers who will just come here and compete for these piddly funds.
Yikes! My @CIHR_IRSC panel funded 6 out of 49 applications. The panel normally funds that many. We also normally have 30 applications. Brutal.
CIHR scores landed exactly where I expected for a first round submission, very decent (as a past member, my panel almost never scored above 4.6). Comments reasonable and doable.
Off to the beautiful Bahamas for #ACNP2026! See everyone there!
Leaving for a conference but interested in complaining together over wine late next week?
Often dream about retiring early. Leaving Canada and living my best life on a beach somewhere in the islands. Blank slate, start over somewhere else. And I really don't need to see snow again.
Governments can't keep getting credit for promises alone. What matters is co-creation (not "consultation") with Indigenous communities and real action.

Omg. I hate people sometimes.
He's absolutely right. And it alienates me to no end. And the money they get for their lab and equipment far exceeds anything we get. I know because the call has went out and we are about to try and recruit.

And guess what, they are getting rewarded. We preach quality over quantity, but in practice, it seems to be just talk.
Am I the only one seeing more ECRs/mid career researchers applying for awards, honours, memberships with an exorbitant amount of papers in the past 2-3 years? Like 40-50 pubs/year? CV padded with reviews, systematic reviews, low N clinical papers, or "hypothesis generating" papers.
Here's the only thing I see about Tri-Agency funding.
Perhaps. Or.... we could submit it just to see the response. I might find that entertaining.
I have no words. Lol
I feel this.
My X feed. "Autism is genetic" says the human geneticist. "Depression is an energetic state" says the mitochondrial physiologist. Can we please stop with this simplification of complex disorders? It's epistemic arrogance, and simply advocating for one's own field of work. And language matters.

The first full day of the Global Indigenous Languages Summit in Ottawa wrapped up Tuesday afternoon.
The theme was land and language, which featured a social media and youth component, as well as breakout sessions on Indigenous language revitalization.
It's like Search Committee for upper admin. Meaningless.
Archaeologists: "We're amazed!"
Indigenous people: "Well, yeah."
