Este 10 de abril, saludamos a quienes investigan, y en este marco, a pensarse como trabajadores. Tiene que haber un horizonte común entre quienes investigan y el resto de los trabajadores. Porque sin ciencias no hay futuro deseable. Y sin condiciones dignas, no hay ciencias.

Today Pathoplexus announces the inclusion of a new viral pathogen: mpox (previously known as monkeypox).
Within the context of the current mpox outbreaks and ongoing health concerns, Pathoplexus aims to support sequence sharing to improve both understanding and response.

often overlooked in EDI strategies and key to perceptions of excellence. Language coaching not the only solution (takes extra time too): need to normalise non-native accents/accept different ways of expressing oneself

When they do, they face a 2.5 times higher chance of being rejected because of language
