In recent wks, federal authorities have detained a handful of other #university #students & #researchers – including #GreenCard holders – who have expressed #Palestinian solidarity amid #Israel’s deadly war on #Gaza. Earlier this week, 30-yr-old #RumeysaOzturk, a Turkish doctoral student at #Tufts University, was detained by masked federal ofcls in dramatic footage that has caused widespread outrage.
#Violence in Syria in the 1980's might have altered the #DNA of #victims for generations, #researchers have found, citing evidence of #genetic transmission of stress.
#Physicians, #Nurses, #Researchers, #Healthcare workers, #lab techs, do you want to get out of 
?
Boy do we have an offer for you: #MedMastodon
https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/epidemiology/respiratory-diseases-in-virginia/data/ #virginia data still exists and is still being published regarding #flu #rsv and #COVID.
Sorry travelers to the #US and between #states: #cdc et al have been ordered to cease all external publication and comms.
If the data are still being collected and getting out there by #alt accounts, thank you #publichealth advocates inside the asylum.
#researchers outside #us government control, hope you can collect and communicate somehow.
#Physician-#researchers, I wish you a great 2025. I’m here to help you get your #medical #journal #manuscripts in their best shape so that #reviewers recommend #publication of your articles. Let’s get your research findings out there and help #medicine advance!
A study by @universityofgroningen #researchers of #Dutch #cat owners reveals:
Many of them anthropomorphize their pets, attributing #human #social roles like family member or #child.
"Cat owners’ anthropomorphic perceptions of feline emotions and interpretation of photographs"
This can lead to misinterpreting #feline emotions and behaviours by projecting complex human-like social and emotional characteristics onto cats.

Hello from #Harare, #Zimbabwe!
This week we're supporting the #GBIF #Africa Regional Nodes Meeting and the Africa Engagement Meeting for the #Biodiversity Information for Development (BID) Programme!
These events are being hosted by #GBIFZimbabwe at Bindura #University of #Science #Education! We're excited to collaborate with nodes, data holders, #researchers and regional initiatives to discuss collecting, sharing and using #biodiversity data across #Africa!
Unprecedented changes in Antarctica ice prompt researchers to issue emergency statement
Hundreds of polar researchers issue an emergency statement calling for urgent action to deal with the impacts of climate change in Antarctica.
I consider giving a talk to my colleagues in my research dept about #Fediverse and #Mastodon. I wanted to do that 2 years ago but haven't take the time - yet.
I more or less know what I want to say, but I need a visual support. And maybe additional background would be a +.
Do you know of a nice presentation/doc from which I could extract useful visuals (and maybe quantitative facts)? Even better if it's meant for #academics / #researchers.
A recent study found that the number of researchers leaving science within the first decade is nearly 50%. And women are twice as likely as men to leave the field. “When you have this kind of big data, it becomes more compelling to recognize that this is a problem,” says Joya Misra, a sociologist at University of Massachusetts, Amherst, who studies gender and inequality in academia. Nature attempts to untangle it all: https://flip.it/2ZSKZC

Delaying crewed #Moon landings into the late 2020s could increase the chances that lunar #astronauts 
will be exposed to more extreme #SpaceWeather 
and its damaging effects. While extreme storms are less likely between now and 
2026, the #researchers say, the interval between 2026 and 2030 will carry a higher likelihood of big events that mission planners may have to consider. https://www.astronomy.com/observing/could-hazardous-space-weather-threaten-nasas-artemis-program/

Our work in a research article in Sustainability (MDPI) about Climate Bonus (#Klimabonus) has achieved more than 100.000 views after two years!
So proud that our work on #climatemitigation responses well in the scientific community. We need more #transdisciplinary work as collaboration between #researchers and practicioners.
