I wrote a piece about a certain flavor of academic abuse. I have carried parts of this story for upwards of 25 yrs, & I’m grateful to @chronicle.com for helping me to tell it.

Universities across Europe have begun actively recruiting U.S. researchers,"offering themselves as a haven for those keen to escape the Trump administration’s crackdown on research and academia." #PhDSky #SciSky #PhDChat
European universities offer ‘scientific asylum’ to US researchers fleeing Trump’s cuts

Just practiced my dissertation defense presentation for the 15th (or so) time and I think it's finally ready to go! Can't believe the time is almost here. I mean, I can because I've been waiting months but it's also kind of surreal. #whew #phdchat #academicsky #phdsky

Indexicality lesson for students and others who submit attachments. You need to label your file with your OWN NAME, not "Chapter 6" or "Paris conference presentation". The Paris conference will receive 400 files, 395 of which will have identical/similar names. Recipe for chaos. #academicsky #PhDchat

Except, sadly, it is believable. Today I offer you a spinach-based insight from the research / writing / academia meme stash. #highered #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat #resdev #resdevmemes

This banger from the academia / writing / research meme stash definitely has wider applicability but I do really like using it for coaching, mentoring, and workshop activities when we talk about the importance of saying 'no' to things as researchers. #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat

To help people understand the importance of NIH, share what you’ve used their funding for (in easily understandable terms).

I’ll start: my NIH postdoc funding helped me develop and test AI tools that could identify skin cancer across diverse skin tones.
