So if I want to study in Sweden, I must first live in another country and put my money there before I can even apply.
If I already had that, why would I apply there?!
This is discrimination.
People are not their governments. We just want a chance!

An old 2005 PC, only a CD drive, left for dead. With #antiX core, it’s alive again; now a kid will have a system for school. This is why #open-source matters. It gives life, and it gives chances. #linux

Just published! Our study on a new pistachio disease in Iran caused by Xanthomonas—including the report of Xanthomonas hortorum on pistachio. Grateful to work with great colleagues on this. doi.org/10.1111/jph....

I wrote a personal widget for my KDE as I love to read poems—Ganjine, a port of a Cinnamon desklet. It displays Persian verses from ganjoor.net. Check it out if you love reading poems like me. Not perfect, but do what I want. #Ganjine #PersianPoetry #KDE #OpenSource #Linux

The lack of response from #academia is discouraging for students like me who dedicate time to their applications. "To recruiters: even a rejection demonstrates respect, provides clarity, and allows us to move forward. Thoughtful communication nurtures growth and hope." 🧪

I didn’t choose where I was born. Today, yet again, I was reminded how political barriers can overshadow talent and determination. It’s painful, but I’ll keep pushing because science should know no borders. 🧪 🌱 #ScienceForAll #EqualityInResearch #PlantScience #AcademicSky
