As a fan of japanese art *and* as a taphonomist, I was very excited to learn about Kusôzu: watercolour paintings that depict the decay and decomposition of a human body.
Let's talk about this using Kobayashi Eitaku's 'Body of a Courtesan in Nine Stages' (1870s) *GRAPHIC THREAD*

Do a PhD in a field you are passionate about and you’ll never work a day in your life, because there are no jobs.

We hope the authors of those abstracts will still be able to attend and enjoy the conference, it promises to be a really fun meeting with delegates from all over the world

Today emails have been sent to everybody who submitted an abstract for #PalAss24, please check your spam folder if you haven't yet received yours. We are delighted to be hosting so many talks and posters this year, and look forward to seeing some exciting research! #FossilFriday
This.
Many of the issues faced by myself, my friends, and my colleagues is not because of 'science'. It's because of the systemic issues within academia: job insecurity, low wages, lack of jobs, rampant bullying, and toxic work environments.
We are certainly overwhelmed by the sheer number of abstracts we have to sift! 😂😅
We are absolutely blown away by the number of early bird registrations and abstract submissions that came in before the deadline - it's going to be a lively and diverse meeting in December! #PalAss24 🌍🦴🐚

I really struggled to make the transition to blue sky and start again, I just don't feel like it's worth the effort. I found the loss of community here really sad, but have found it hard to leave even though my feed is a unpleasant experience. Weird.

Universities will be like “I know we have a preferred internal candidate, but wouldn’t it be funny if we got 450 people’s hopes up?”

As teams grow, new #PhD graduates are less likely to land tenure-track jobs and more likely to leave science—especially women and international researchers. scim.ag/86N @ScienceCareers

The same people who spent 14 years cheerleading an administration that imposed huge restrictions on protest rights and blacklisted anyone criticising the government from official events, now suddenly acting like we're in an Orwellian nightmare, six weeks into a Labour government
