    Lest we forget that a scientific society should be there to unite our community, provide forums for open discussion, and broaden impact to the wider society we serve. This means it is entirely incongruous for them to push back against Open Research.

    Just a reminder for those who are due to attend the in San Diego - can you ask any society officers why TMS signed the AAP coalition of 135+ scientific publishers' letter to restrict the roll out of open access?

    "“Is language a mirror of society, or does it shape society?” In the world of science, he says, language seems to both reflect and promote bias — and female researchers are experiencing the consequences." So yeah - it matters how we talk sometimes.🤔

    "Analysis of titles & abstracts in more than 100k scientific articles found papers with first & last authors who were both women were about 12% less likely than male-authored papers to include sensationalistic terms such as ‘unprecedented’, ‘novel’, ‘excellent’ or ‘remarkable’."

    Just saw an article which brought my brain back to this discussion: Just to stress, Ben, that by not overdoing the hype you are one of the good guys, from both a science and an EDI point of view.

    Anyway - the need for the Union to act and strike is always a difficult call. It's not a happy feeling for anyone and will cause much stress and angst. But the longer term future and worth of our jobs is worth addressing…

    One reason for me staying in the UK, many years ago now (post doc time) was because I was a final entry into the final salary scheme. This has been destroyed now, and meh, being taken for granted by a system that is "too complex to fix" is exhausting.

    As an early career person, I used to think that a pension was something I didn't have to worry about. As I get older, I realise that was a limited outlook. My pension is deferred earnings, & at the moment my employer is not addressing the structural damage in our pension scheme.
