Lately, I've found books that explain science/research concepts in a more narrative or informal, conversational style especially helpful. What books would you recommend for a PhD student or early-career researcher to read?

We've been getting questions about, "is Northsky for people who aren't 2SLGBTQIA+ as well?"

The answer is YES! You just have to be chill and respectful of 2SLGBTQIA+ people and other minority groups.

🔔BREAKING🔔

The NSF has frozen all research grant awards—cutting off life-saving science midstream and demanding ideological screenings for future funding.

This is censorship disguised as oversight.

Here’s how you can help us spread the word ➡️🧵(1/3):
