New paper out!

Dozens of staff stood up and displayed these signs at the beginning of today’s address by the VC to demonstrate their lack of confidence in him and his ability to impose such devastating staff cuts across the university.

Super proud of Kristen, her teach-out was definitely one of the highlights of these first two weeks of industrial action.

This is how it feels in my head when it's the weekend, elvanse has just kicked in while I'm having coffee at the local cafe, and The Smiths are playing and I'm so happy I could cry

I really never learn.
Every time I'm at a conference I think to myself "I'll do some work in the evening when I'm back to the b&b", every time I am too tired to do anything but go on netflix or do sudokus

After a (quick) search, today I found out there is little to no research on ADHD in academia/academics.
Or maybe there is, and I don't know how to use databases? :/
