BREAKING: HUNDREDS were just arrested blockading @SenSchumer's street, including high profile public officials, rabbis, politicians, scholars, and descendants of holocaust survivors — ages 20 to 80.
We demand an end to the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. Never again is today.

6/27: we announced that our card drive hit majority, showing that thousands of NYU researchers support forming a union
8/15: seven weeks after we hit majority Langone announced raises and blocked access to our website on its wifi “ for your protection” 🤡
Congratulations to all of my colleagues for the great work! Onto a new era of researcher and science advocacy.
I don't post often, but everyone who follows me should know how terrifying this is. This is the alternative to Trump in the Republican party. I can not safely travel anywhere with laws like this, for conferences or otherwise.

Hello here is my monthly Twitter binge quote tweeting about things that make me angry.

NYU Langone's student social media guidelines restrict students from discussing concerns about work environment on social media. I'm not a lawyer but this seems to contradict the National Labor Relations Act? This tweet will be staying up.
Spending this year studying MRI has ruined me. I'm listening through this moving, beautiful album about Alzheimer's dementia and all I can think about is signal to noise ratio 🤦 thecaretaker.bandcamp.com/al…
Great resources in the replies!
I am wrapping up my first year as a PhD student and can’t help but feel subpar. I don’t understand statistics to the extent I wish. SAS/any statistical software makes me nervous. I struggle comprehending journal articles on my own. Should I be concerned? @PhDVoice

I would like everyone in science to read the painful, poignant description of what, exactly, Sabatini did to women under his mentorship. It should make you sick to your stomach. I don't think I could still be in science if I'd faced any of this. docdroid.net/IbuM7VK/searchp…
I didn't even bother attending the @nyugrossman zoom meeting today because everything done and said was totally predictable down to calling an attendee muted lecture a "discussion", I have a tough exam tomorrow, and frankly I do not have the emotional energy.

So @nyugrossman invited the community to a zoom for transparency.
Then revoked the invite, saying only trainees and research faculty are invited.
Now trainees can’t get into their zoom link and the email they’re told to contact bounces back.
First year PhD student at NYU Langone here. I rarely post on Twitter, but the Sabatini debacle at NYU is so horrifying that I had to log on just to speak out against it. Grad students are vulnerable. So many people publicly speaking out indicates something very, very wrong.

🚨NYU ALUMNI STUDENTS & POSTDOCS🚨:
WALKOUT tomorrow (4/27) to oppose the recruitment of Dr. David Sabatini to NYU & to stand in solidarity w/ current trainees.
2 PM EST at 30th St & 1st Ave on Greenberg side (or wherever you’re currently located if you left NYC)

Great opportunity for all #ECRPIA - come learn how to become an expert peer reviewer!
Very proud of these initiatives from our editorial team @braincomms - if you're interested in learning more about how to be a good peer reviewer or what it's like to work on a neuroscience journal, get in touch with us!

Sometimes I feel confident in my first weeks of my PhD program. Sometimes the graduate advisor recommends a class with multivariate calculus as a prerequisite 😅

David L. Perez, MD, MMSc, of @MGHNeurology & @MGHPsychiatry, discusses FND, a condition that sits between neurology and psychiatry. In this video, Dr. Perez explores how to bridge the gap between diagnosis & treatment planning for those with FND advances.massgeneral.org/neu…
