Our work on improving scientific conferences has been published. We assessed 270 in-person conferences and noted that many were lacking in sustainability, inclusivity and accessibility. We believe that a switch to virtual formats is crucial for science🧵👇🏼

The use of non-inclusive terms such as "blacklist" and "whitelist", or “master” and “slave” is increasing in the life sciences literature. Aziz Khan (@khanaziz84) calls for the academic community to expunge these archaic terms https://t.co/uBBX9qZz7T

Studies have shown that white PIs are 1.7 times more likely to receive NIH grant funding than Black PIs. A recent Feature Article delves into these disparities in more detail and considers the agency’s response. Read this thread for highlights ⬇️ (1/7) https://t.co/OkxkeS0eYn
