Taking the stage: #ScientistAtWork photo competition 2018

This picture of Garry Cooper was taken at as he spoke to a crowd of almost 60,000 scientists and supporters, during the March for Science on April 22 2017. It was submitted to Naturejobs as part of the #ScientistAtWork 2018 photo competition. Cooper tells Rebecca Wild about the story behind the picture.  Read more

March for Science 2018 gears up

March for Science 2018 gears up

Caroline Weinberg, an organizer for the upcoming march in Washington DC, expects smaller crowds than last year, although she admits her prediction may again be off the mark. “Last we expected 40,000 people, and we got around 100,000,” she says. She adds that most of the marchers in the nation’s capital city were concerned citizens, not practicing researchers.  Read more

Out of the lab and onto the streets

Posted by Jack Leeming | Categories: #ScientistOnTheMove, Academia, Collaboration, Communication, Diversity, Events, In the News, Research, Scientists on the move, Social media, US

Out of the lab and onto the streets

April 22 began with a drizzly ride on rented bikes through the streets of southeast D.C. to the Washington monument. I was accompanied by Dylan Jones, an outdoor recreation and environmental writer from West Virginia. “I typically opt for escaping civilization on Earth Day,” Jones said, “but today I decided to go straight into the heart of it.” We weaved through roads littered with people in rain shells and lab coats, carrying vibrant signs and rainbow umbrellas.  Read more

Boffins, Brexit, Trump and a Time Lord: How the media saw the March for Science

Boffins, Brexit, Trump and a Time Lord: How the media  saw the March for Science

A sighting of Doctor Who actor Peter Capaldi “marching alongside physicists, astronomers and biologists” at the London march on 22 April proved irresistible to Daily Mail headline writers, who wrote: ‘”What do we want? Evidence-based policy. When do we want it? After peer review: Boffins’ VERY academic chant as Doctor Who joins thousands protesting against Brexit during global March for Science.”  … Read more

Why I marched for science – a transatlantic perspective

Posted by Jack Leeming | Categories: #ScientistOnTheMove, Academia, Career paths, Communication, Diversity, Europe, Events, In the News, US

Why I marched for science – a transatlantic perspective

On Saturday, April 22nd, myself and an estimated 11,000 other science supporters marched in Berlin. The event was part of the global “March for Science” that took place in over 600 cities worldwide. While the March here and everywhere else was a great success in putting a spotlight on the importance of research and the danger of building on false facts, I’m worried it won’t have a lasting effect on the public perception of science if we don’t improve our science communication.  Read more

Stepping up for hope

Posted by Karen Kaplan | Categories: Academia, Admin, Career paths, Communication, Faculty, Funding, In the News, Postdoc, Postgraduate, Research, US

Stepping up for hope

Scientists across the United States are just now returning to their labs after a weekend of marching, waving signs and, in many cases, wringing out rain-soaked lab coats. The steady rain that fell Saturday, 22 April, on the March for Science in Washington DC didn’t dampen participants’ enthusiasm for standing up for “science that upholds the common good and for political leaders and policy makers to enact evidence-based policies in the public interest,” to quote the March for Science website’s mission statement.  Read more

Why I will not be marching for science

Posted by Jack Leeming | Categories: #ScientistOnTheMove, Academia, Blog, Career paths, Communication, Events, In the News, Industry, Scientists on the move, Social media, Union, US

Why I will not be marching for science

When I was in graduate school, I learned to create classes using backward design. Backward design encourages setting goals and then planning a course of action to meet those goals. This strategy can be applied to almost anything in life. “What do I want for dinner?,” for example, can transform into “I need dinner to be quick” or “let’s get rid of what’s about to go bad in the fridge.”  … Read more
