It doesn't take genius guess the Tory plan. Starve our NHS of money for 13 years until there are SEVEN MILLION people on waiting lists, then say "Hey, look, the NHS is failing. We need to privatise it." Our NHS is not failing. It is BEING FAILED by the Conservatives

Researchers are much more likely than the general population to experience depression and anxiety. And recent studies suggest that scientists’ mental-health struggles are a direct result of a toxic research culture go.nature.com/3qasuwD

Using #ChatGPT to pull species names + study location out of a list of publications for later analysis. I’m just a beginner, but this tool can really help with laborious tasks where my concentration fails #adhd (NB: will check manually for mistakes 👀)

Junior doctors start their careers on £29,384. There is not a single Conservative MP who would be prepared to do their jobs for that salary. If we’re not careful there won’t be a single junior doctor who is prepared to do so either. #juniordoctorstrikes

Did you know that even the friendliest of dogs can threaten our wildlife? 💔 The Wildlife Trusts and @DogsTrust are asking people to keep their pooches on leads. This will protect some of our most vulnerable species, like nesting birds. 🐦 wildlifetrusts.org/news/pet-…

Time in meetings has more than tripled since Feb 2020. Nearly a third of meetings are unnecessary—wasting $25M a year for every 1k people. There are 4 reasons to meet: to decide, learn, bond, and do. If it doesn't serve one of those purposes, cancel it. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
