Canada must address this important issue not only because it’s the right thing to do, but also to remain competitive as a global player in science and innovation. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
A year or so late, but I just need to share these beautiful pictures of women in math🧮 (including @diana_terese) found from @WISESTualberta!

I 💕💕💕 @sarahlovesmaths's new book Once Upon a Prime.
It's Math 🧮+ Literature 📚 combined in an authentic and sophisticated way. What could be better?
Book Recommendation for @zibbyowens and @booktalketc?

(pt 1) Today is my first day (officially) back at work since January. ✍️
It was difficult to admit that I could not get over the work burnout (due to pandemic teaching + lots of other factors) or manage my severe pain⚡️ + other chronic symptoms while continuing to "do it all".
(pt 3) I did a lot of thinking, reading, reflecting, and writing about my burnout and how I react to my work in the Department.
I read a lot of @parkerjpalmer at the beginning. I read a lot of memoirs of academia and chronic illness. 📚I had a lot of therapy throughout.💬
(pt 4, final) I am still in daily, often agonizing, pain. My symptoms did not go away with stress. My body is weak.
But I am stronger💪 because I am firmer in my mission, my belonging, and my community, and hope to act in ways that affirm this.

I love the way @AuthorJenniferR blends research into engaging fiction.📚 This is one thing made her discussion with @BiancaM_author at @BlueHeronBooks this weekend so fun: it layer out what Oxford PhD historian does behind the scenes.
The Coronation Year was also featured on @booktalketc this morning! So exciting to hear one of a favourite 🇨🇦author on my favourite book podcast!
Hi I’m Sarah! I live in Canada & refuse to accept that getting Covid several times a year is the new normal. I mask to protect people I care about - and also to protect complete strangers in my community. #MaskUp
