  1. CN #ScienceUnderAttack #US
    Dafür, dass einer der wichtigsten SpitzenWissenschaftler während der CovidZeit #AnthonyFauci sich im Trumpland vor Verschwörungsmythen juristisch rechtfertigen muß, ist es erstaunlich still. Sind Wissenschaftler schon unterworfen ?

  2. "I have the impression that, in China, being a scientist in society is something that is good, you have a good salary, a good social status, good respect and a good career prospect. In Europe, [laughs] it’s a bit more like you’re marginal, you accept to have lower salaries against more freedom. And the consideration for what you do in society is not that high"

  4. The NSF lost 40% of its staff and fired all 22 independent board members. Then came the order: haul up 900 instruments tracking the AMOC, the current keeping half the planet livable. They're unplugging the alarm so the house burns quiet.

  5. They pulled 900 instruments from the Atlantic — the ones tracking the AMOC current that keeps half the planet livable. Unplugging the alarm so the house burns quiet. https://twp.ai/9OXOUg #ClimateCrisis #OceanScience #AMOC #ScienceUnderAttack #ClimateAction #SaveScience #EarthScience

  8. Nights are filled with sirens and shelters, days with research tasks that demand focus. It’s difficult to write, analyse data, or prepare papers when missiles keep interrupting sleep. Conversations abroad about “peace” sound abstract, while here the routine is air raids and unfinished work. But nothing stops, life, and with it science, goes on. Fuck the occupiers.

  10. @jonny this entire thread is amazing, top-notch tool development for a noble cause.
    @ #academia : if you feel desperate about the wholesale breakdown of science under the current US administration, consider helping out with #SciOp: Decentralized backups of datasets under threat, in a torrent swarm.

    Have a disused laptop or Raspi? Make it part of the swarm and take the data outside the US (or any) administration's grasp!

  16. Präsident #Trump plant massive Kürzungen für die National Science Foundation (#NSF). Das Budget könnte von 9 auf 3 Milliarden Dollar sinken – ein Rückgang um 66 %, der Tausende Jobs kosten könnte. Das könnte katastrophale Folgen für die US-Wissenschaft haben. Ex-NSF-Direktor Neal Lane sieht die amerikanische Führungsrolle in Gefahr, während China profitieren könnte.

  17. Ukrainian scientists 🇺🇦 work under relentless bombing, destroyed universities, & zero funding. Meanwhile, some frame Russian scientists as 'victims' of sanctions. Silence isn't neutral - it's complicity.

  19. Academics in basic science are also questioning the government now. Nobel laureate Venki Ramakrishnan joins the list. Obviously, the government's focus of scientific research on bovine excrement isn't remotely helpful! #JNUUnderAttack #ScienceUnderAttack
