The life of a Science Cheerleader

Posted by Laura Wheeler | Categories: Science Online NYC (SoNYC)

The life of a Science Cheerleader

To complement this week’s SoNYC discussion, on Of Schemes and Memes we have been delving into the world of minority scientists. Our first installment from Jeanne Garbarino, a Postdoc at Rockefeller University, considered some of the underrepresented groups within science. In our second installment, Mónica I. Feliú-Mójer discussed her role as the vice-director of Ciencia Puerto Rico, a non-profit, grassroots organization that promotes science, research and scientific literacy in Puerto Rico. Our third post was from Subhra Priyadarshini, editor of Nature Publishing Group’s India portal who talked about life for scientists in India. In our forth post we heard from Satoshi Uchiyama, a Japanese researcher working abroad, as he details his career hurdles and visa issues. In our next post, Amanda Adeleye, a medical student discusses how the glamorous world of cheerleading can mix with science.  Read more

Announcing the fourth Science Online NYC! (SoNYC)

Posted by nature.com Communities Team | Categories: Import, Science Online NYC (SoNYC)

After a break in July for the summer, it’s time to share some details of the latest Science Online NYC. SoNYC is a monthly discussion series for anyone based in, or around, New York who’s interested in how science is carried out and communicated online. Each month we invite a panel of experts in a particular area to tell us in 5-10 minutes what the latest developments are in their field or to whet our appetites for a debate with a provocative thesis. We then open up the conversation to the in-person audience as well as those watching via our Livestream channel and commenting on Twitter and enjoy a lively discussion and the chance to make new friends afterwards.  Read more
