What are we doing about this, and what can we do? Surely thousands of brilliant minds have at least a few solutions. I was discussing international jobs at a booth and a person assured me I'd have an easier time getting a job than ie Syrians. How can we accept this as norm???

Got it & totally agree. My interest isn't in working w/ conferences to allow distance presentations because I agree that's a bandaid (but maybe a good shot term approach). I'm interested in working w/ the State Department and international scientists to make sure y'all get visas.

Oh, that's awesome. Thanks.

I haven't thought it all through yet, but if you know a scientist (esp. a student) who's been denied a visa for a conference in the US who'd be willing to share their experience, please put us in touch!

Here's one I just found on Twitter search (same thing happened last year students too):https://twitter.com/dubova_marina/status/1142554315988590592?s=19 …

But it's not USA, which is I guess what you can help with more.

These comments are really helpful and, along w/ several private convos, have led me to putting together a statement scientists can sign around the world on things we can do based on where we live + at conferences, w/ resources. Would love your feedback when it's fully drafted.

please count me in too!

Thank you so much — anything I can do to help!
