🎓 Appel à tous les étudiants diplômés et postdoctorants canadiens !

#VoicesForScience est une nouvelle campagne visant à mettre en avant la lutte pour une rémunération équitable et un meilleur soutien à la recherche.

At @supportourscience.bsky.social, we advocate for stronger federal investment in research funding and equitable pay for trainees — ensuring that Canada remains not just a destination for talent, but a place where researchers can build thriving, lasting careers.

Without fair, competitive support for Canadian graduate students and postdocs, we risk losing the very people who drive discovery and innovation at home.

The article highlights how Canada’s research ecosystem is attracting top international talent — but also underscores a critical point: to truly sustain this brain gain, we must properly fund the researchers already here.
