MIT general is here (oge.mit.edu/msrp/) There is also a separate MSRP for the Biology department (biology.mit.edu/program-deta...) but many of us biologists are in other departments (I'm in CEE!) and recruit from the general program.

I’ve got about 1/40th as many followers on this site as I had on the bird site, but I feel I’ve almost got enough to have conversations and make connections like I did before the other place went 😵. Need to keep posting here and visit there less. Thanks for being here everyone! #academicsky

This is my Fish Crow. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My Fish Crow is my best friend. It is my life
It seems to me that the time is ripe for a Bluesky thread about how—and maybe even why—to befriend crows. (1/n)

Excited to see the main chapter of my PhD published! This was a huge team effort - the experimental setup alone took years to complete and none of it would have been possible without my colleagues Konstantin Neuhaus and Kazuki Nosho, as well as of course my supervisor Knut Drescher and many others!

Great piece from Dr. Kate Marvel. The fossil fuel industry is not only hampering our ability to transition by refusing to plan for a phasing out of oil, coal and gas, but also by dampening our belief that we can create a better world without them. But we can, we already are.

At a recent lab meeting, a question came up about frequency and amount of publication bonuses for academics depending on area of research, country and type/level of institution. Where I work, no such thing. Curious to know what it's actually like elsewhere. #PsychSciSky #Socialpsych #AcademicSky
