Reviewers: if you are assigned a manuscript that is well written and data are clear, can we agree to say no changes needed? It seems many suggest unnecessary changes just to feel they are a good reviewer. This is damaging to students, postdocs and PIs 😡 @AcademicChatter

Seeking more educators! Animation lab postdoc @Na_y_ak has been working on visualizations of metabolic flux. If you're teaching these concepts, we'd love your your help developing these animations and educational modules (which will be freely shared online).

All colleagues out there reviewing papers. Please write your reviews in a constructive way. Lots of "!!!" with extremely harsh/offensive words really shouldn't be the way to review. Think of the PhD students dealing with it and it might be their 1st ever paper #AcademicChatter – at Manchester, England

Five years ago today, I moved to the US to pursue an academic career and explore new research directions. Today, I'm overwhelmed by deep anxiety about the upcoming Executive Order suspending work visas including H-1B, which I've applied for. Speechless.

So, there is a pregnant student in my school this semester, which should be no-one's business, only she might give birth before the end of term so she's been asking profs if she can submit the final papers a couple of weeks earlier 1/x

DeepSTORM3D – (finally) out - peer-reviewed and improved! nature.com/articles/s41592-0… In this project we used neural nets to: 1. handle severe overlapping of 3D PSFs in SMLM and particle tracking, and 2. design an optimal PSF for dense emitters in 3D. More info below.

Rejection of academic work is nothing new, but rejection after keeping an article “under review” for 2.5 years hard to swallow. Seems it’s another new normal. @AcademicChatter #innovation #openinnovation
