This is part of the reason why I have suspended all travel to the United States indefinitely. A Swiss teacher wanted to celebrate her birthday in New York with friends but instead was detained, shackled, and sent off to a detention center in New Jersey.

If you are visiting the United States, having a negative view of Trump is enough to get you denied entry.
If this was coming out of Russia or China, we would deplore such an authoritarian attack on freedom of expression.

Not sure if its a feature, a bug, or just because I don't follow enough people yet but my favourite thing about this site is that occasionally you reach the end of it.
Like you have the discover tab to find out everything that's going on in the world, get annoyed and then it just runs out

As part of PhDs and fellowships it's seen as a good thing to go on research visits. When I was writing my fellowship application I wanted to work this in but as a parent with young kids it's difficult to spend a big chunk of time abroad. So I'm trying to do more frequent short visits instead 1/n

Gave a talk at a PPI day yesterday. We did an icebreaker where everyone had to draw what "cancer research meant to them".
All the researchers drew test tubes/computers/stethoscopes and the PPI group all drew things about hope, happiness and making people's lives better.
