Today we withdrew a paper because it sat at the journal for 7 months, and supposedly the reviews had been sitting with the handling editor for at least a month with no decision. Request to transfer to a different editor denied. Ridiculous. #AcademicTwitter.

Food for thought: has the inception of all these new journals led to significantly longer review times? Is the editorial/ review pool overtaxed? #AcademicTwitter.

Why am I recently getting flooded with review requests from no-name journals? Anyone else?.

PSA: #NIH study section on Microsoft Teams is definitely inferior. Poor sound quality, video freezing and fuzzy, and breakout groups not working. Please go back to zoom.

I just opened my advising portal and discovered I have 100 advisees. That does not include any new minor students I get this week, 2 more Dean's major students, and my co-mentored PhD student. WOW.

This is your regular reminder to accept journal review requests every now and then and complete them on time. Holding papers hostage is not fair to your worldwide colleagues. #AcademicTwitter.

Does anyone know if #NIH study sections are happening yet? Finding it odd that I haven't gotten a zoom link for Thurs yet. .

Always new challenges / adventures in teaching. Currently getting a rash of students asking for me to change the days of the class, teach asychronously (not allowed by university), and or let them skip half the sessions. My class time has been set for 8 years. #AcademicTwitter.

A plea to fellow academics: please be timely in your manuscript reviews. If you can’t do it in the allotted or reasonable time, decline. Papers being under review for MONTHS hurts science… not to mention it is inconsiderate and rude. #AcademicTwitter.

Anyone else spending at least an hour a day stressing about this #NIH funding chaos? I want to keep my team.

Some academics have a laissez faire attitude towards deadlines. That’s not cute when someone else is ultimately responsible. and life happens to that person responsible. Be considerate. If you can’t make a deadline, say so.

Sometimes I wonder if people submit poorly written grants just to get feedback on what to clarify.

Curious if anyone else ever had problems getting carryover from #NIH in prior administrations (I have so I'm wondering what the deal is).

Just came back from a great trip to Uganda to visit my #tuberculosis research teams. We truly have the best people doing this work. #globalhealth
