"More scholars must push back. The idea that #scientists can keep doing what they know must be done to incorporate #DEI into their work while adjusting terms to fit the demands of bigoted autocrats bent on hobbling #science is to whistle loudly past a graveyard of avoidable error, continued financial cuts and #censorship.

I can’t get over the cognitive dissonance of spending 12 hours of intense work in clinic, using every minute of my 25 years of training and experience to formulate treatment plans for my patients with #cancer, and then to come home and check the news and to read about every part of the infrastructure needed to attain the knowledge for these treatment plans bring intentionally dismantled

#PPOD: Happy St. Patrick's Day! On August 7, 2003, the Aqua MODIS instrument acquired this image of Ireland on the first day this summer that most of the island wasn't completely obscured by cloud cover. Ireland is called the Emerald Isle for a good reason. It is draped in vibrant shades of green amidst the blue Atlantic Ocean and the Celtic (south) and Irish (east) Seas.
