The @BlackInNeuro membership directory hit 1,000 members today.
That's a searchable database of 1,000 Black undergrads, grad students, postdocs, faculty, and clinicians you can invite for talks, interviews, collaborations and connect with to grow your neuro community. #BINW23

How many academics recognise this feeling? Shocking. Solidarity with @DrDionGeorgiou
Being made to feel sick with anxiety or numb with disillusionment by this job is nothing new, and the warm support of current and former colleagues, and firm backing from @UCUChichester, is sustaining me through this current ordeal. But why do the uni see me as expendable? (6/12)

WTF?! The UK is one of the world’s richest countries & we’re really going to tell our kids we can’t “afford” to pay for a liveable planet for them?? And we’re going to betray some of the poorest countries? This Govt’s moral bankruptcy is truly sickening theguardian.com/environment/…

Worrying to see such misleading headlines to the public which have no credibility and give the impression that lowering emissions doesn’t improve health. My advice as always is to read scientific journals rather than newspapers that tend to cherry pick to suit a political agenda. – at Bromley, London
In 16 studies of zones across the world, including London, Berlin and Tokyo, the authors said that low emission zones did not show a 'clear' reduction in respiratory diseases
Of course they didn’t. Scrap ULEZ now. Free Our Streets
