Que dice esta señora que hace 30 años no era necesario subrayar que quienes llegan a la universidad "no saben leer con fluidez ni comprender lo que leen".

No hace 30 años, no. Desde al menos 1820 😅

🧵 Hoy el Calendario Científico Escolar del @csic.es conmemora a Georgius Agricola (1494–1555), considerado el padre de la mineralogía.

Su legado sigue influyendo en la ciencia y la técnica, casi cinco siglos después de su muerte.

☀️💧"Durante el aislamiento del Mediterráneo su nivel habría caído hasta dos kilómetros por debajo del actual, y entonces habría comenzado a oscilar a causa de los cambios orbitales en la insolación de la Tierra”, explica @danigeos.bsky.social, investigador de @geo3bcn-csic.bsky.social 👇

En su etapa como director adjunto de El País, este señor me censuró una columna y me presionó repetidas veces para que dejáramos de hacer artículos críticos con las grandes empresas de alimentación en El Comidista. Que le echaran fue una auténtica liberación (en el diario le llamaban "King Joffrey")

¿Dónde están hoy los que dijeron que el #apagon fue por falta de inercia?
¿Dónde están los de que había demasiadas renovables?
Y tantas otras tonterías proclamadas a los cuatro vientos por bocachanclas.

Así que propongo un ejercicio de auto revisión: Ir en nuestro perfil a las publicaciones de […]

En fin, estas convocatorias no hacen sino eternizar las relaciones de vasallaje en la ciencia española.

Tenemos el modelo francés al lado, que podríamos implantar mañana mismo. No hay ni siquiera que inventar. Copiemos!

La 'burbuja' de universidades privadas de dudosa calidad obliga al Gobierno a volver a endurecer los requisitos El decreto de 2021 que imponía más requisitos no ha frenado la aprobación de campus que no alcanzan los mínimos de la norma por, entre otras cosas, la moratoria de cinco años para cumplir tras empezar...

Daba un riñón por conocer las interioridades del mandato de Castells.

Qué pasó? Por qué una persona con las ideas tan claras no fue capaz de llevarlas adelante? Por qué se fue?

Interesting that some Senators criticized @DrJBhattacharya for saying he would fund research at the @NIH to show that vaccines do not cause autism. The critics argued that this was 'settled science.'

Yes, there is compelling evidence against the vaccine-autism relationship. However, a large swath of the public do not believe it. Because of public skepticism, it is not settled science.

There is a need for further research intentending to convince the public regarding vaccine safety. It is not good enough to say "I am a scientist at a prestigious university, and you should believe what I say because of who I am."

That does not work anymore, especially after the pandemic when science's reputation took a big hit...

According to a former editor of JAMA, we need more studies on whether or not vaccines cause autism.

What mistakes does he make?

There have been people less than helpful in my journey here. I wanted to acknowledge those too, bc I know I am not unique in this experience.
No thank you to the physics study assoc that made me sing songs about how women couldn't study physics without sleeping with the professor, the day I stepped into university life. No thank you to the 5th year physics student that decided to assign me a stripper name within the first minute of meeting me in the physics coffee corner in my first year. No thank you to the technician that was responsible for onboarding me on the use of the cluster in my third year who raised his eyebrows and asked me if that meant I was some sort of computer girl. No thank you to the senior researcher that sent me utterly inappropriate texts after a conference, then proceeded to apologise months later by telling me they had not been meant for me anyway so no hard feelings remain hopefully And no thank you to him for attending every conference I've been to since. No thank you to the people who told me that it was surprising that I was doing a PhD since I was a girl. No thank you to the man who mistook me for a coffee lady at a conference, and after having to correct him two times that I did not work there, responded with you should consider it. No thank you to the researcher that asked me what I was wearing underneath my outfit during a conference. No thank you to the physicist who declared to a room full of other physicists that biologists don't know how to design an experiment. No thank you to the people who have called me scary instead of strong and intimidating instead of intelligent.
And finally, no thank you to the exec board of the TU Delft, whose knee-jerk reaction to being held up a mirror about the social safety at the university, was to sue the party holding up the mirror instead of looking at the problems they highlighted.
... You have made me feel like I do not belong in science & I cannot forgive you for that.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.”

La difícil conciliación en la universidad de las mujeres, obligadas a elegir entre la carrera y los cuidados Avanzar en la carrera universitaria es complicado y las demandas que exigen en los puestos más elevados obligan a muchas mujeres a tener que discriminar entre la carrera y los cuidados.

La carrera académica se ha vuelto una picadora de carne en los últimos años. El famoso "two-body problem" (traslados, estancias de investigador + pareja) es difícil para todos, pero la sociedad no es igualitaria y se ceba con las mujeres especialmente.

Un análisis muy acertado, aunque no lo comparta al 100%.

Es necesario restablecer una política científica y de personal dignas de tal nombre. Y eso pasa por arrebatárselas a los departamentos, que las ejercen de facto.

El modelo para hacerlo lo tenemos bien cerca: las unidades mixtas francesas.
