Meiner Meinung nach ist die Mikroskopie eine der coolsten Methoden in der Wissenschaft, weil sie es uns ermöglicht, das „Unsichtbare“ sichtbar zu machen. Sie hat etwas wirklich Künstlerisches an sich, das wir mit der Gesellschaft teilen können. Seeing is believing. 1/3

Late to the game, but it's time to find out what Heated Rivalry is all about!

Quickly telling someone you’ve liked something they’ve done (e.g. telling a writer you like their writing, or a researcher you like their research, or a teacher you like their teaching) has a phenomenally high effort-to-impact ratio.

One of my favourite poems is from The Cure at Troy by Seamus Heaney, and this verse seems extra valuable today:
History says, Don’t hope
on this side of the grave.
But then, once in a lifetime
the longed for tidal wave
of justice can rise up,
and hope and history rhyme.

While I was away, one really important things fell into place. I got my first ever piece of official ID with the correct gender. I have no words for how meaningful and impactful that moment was.

'By analyzing all articles indexed in the PubMed database (>36.5 million articles published in >36,000 biomedical and life sciences journals), we show that the median amount of time spent under review is 7.4%–14.6% longer for female-authored articles than for male-authored articles'
Biomedical and life science articles by female researchers spend longer under review
Women are underrepresented in academia, especially in STEMM fields, at top institutions, and in senior positions. This study analyzes millions of biomedical and life science articles, revealing that f...
