f**k everything about the way new mothers are treated.
I spoke to a newly pregnant grad student today who told me her union had negotiated 15 days off. Im not her primary advisor and not full time faculty right now but I can’t believe this is still a thing. I’ve told this story before, but strap in….

what a fantastic postdoc opportunity! Four years doing some incredibly cool work in a supportive and fun environment! plus learning how to do stuff like this video?!
The #ERC/#UKRI funded post-doc in my lab, looking at #dinosaur locomotion through footprints, is open for one more week. Maybe you have a #biomechanics background, or maybe you have a #geotechnics background, take a look! 4-year position!

There are now papers showing that the migration of academic communities from Twitter to other social media sites mostly failed. But they never fully returned to Twitter either.
I wonder if we will ever see so many different communities interacting in the same online space again.

How have we studied female bird song? Does female song function the same way as male song? Sometimes. . .
Congratulations to Cristina Barros for summarizing the literature on this topic with @UrbanBirdNerd
