This is my new Jack-o-lantern design called 'A squirrel ett it'.

Guess is should probably read it now after hyping it up for months.

Just got round to listening to this…and wow.

And no, it’s not just about this one caller. It’s about the fact that these views are likely more widespread than we’d care to admit.

it’s my birthday today so I wanted to reintroduce myself ✨

- I’m Andrew—friends call me ARA
- I use science to make government more human-centric
- I am passionate about equity and systems change
- I value nature, friendships with animals, and games

Thanks for following me 💖

My mind moves between 'I know everything' to 'I know nothing' at an alarming rate.

These homophobes were yelling Westboro Baptist-style anti-LGBT+ slogans. What do you think I’m gonna do? Take them seriously?😂💃🏽🪩

If you want to associate w/ their views, that’s your business.

But NY-14 will ALWAYS have a champion for LGBTQ+ people on my watch. Period. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💕

Some of you young scientists are really helping me make the case that the next generation is 🔥🔥🔥

Interesting, and depressing, to see some of the reactions on here to @nature devoting space to this important issue. Merely confirms that they were right to do so – and that the job is far from finished.

This is the core point of a very interesting thread. Peer review is not doing what we think it does, and I'm not convinced it actually improves papers (as much as it's turning papers into what two randomly selected anonymous peers wish they were).

Reasons why I went back to research after working at a tech startup:

1. Great team
2. Good cause
3. Challenging
4. Great team

Re: This whole publication debate…to be honest, I don’t want my career to ever come down to papers. I don’t want tenure to be about papers, or grants, or my value as a scientist. Not at all. While I know the system I’ve chosen to work in, given the chance I’d end papers.
