Scientific American has never endorsed a presidential candidate in our 175-year history—until now. The 2020 election is literally a matter of life and death. We urge you to vote for health, science and Joe Biden for President. https://t.co/8TlH7shjFn

In a statement, The Autism Society called out the comments made by Knowles on Fox tonight: "To intentionally demean any person, regardless of neuro-diversity, is both cruel and wrong. ... It is shameful to issue a derogatory statement to a youth advocate."

Happy #BiVisibilityDay to those in the closet, out of it, still deciding or unsure! It's so easy to get wrapped up in everyone else's words, but the love, positivity and acceptance in this community will help drown it out❤️💜💙

Sure, we need scientists in academia. But, let’s not forget that: We need scientists in industry We need scientists in government We need scientists in journalism We need scientists in law We need scientists in policy ...and so much more! There is a world beyond academia.
