Keep calm and be transparent: advice from scientists who retracted their papers Retractions correct the scientific record, but they have stigma attached to them. Some in the research community want that to change.

Retractions, which have long been associated with misconduct or poor scientific practice, can carry a lot of stigma

Non c'è distinzione in termini di potenziale e capacità cognitive tra cervelli maschili e femminili. Eppure, nel mondo accademico/ricerca, la strada è ancora in salita. Non serve un "laboratorio rosa", serve un laboratorio equo: la scienza non si basa sul sesso ma ha solo bisogno di menti curiose.

Non serve una giornata di #mimose, ma politiche concrete per le #donne
👉 pari opportunità nel lavoro
👉 servizi per l’infanzia
👉 contrasto alla violenza di genere

Ma soprattutto una nuova cultura: perché la parità non è un favore, ma un diritto.

In #Lombardia la qualità degli ospedali pubblici e privati è ampiamente riconosciuta, ma la qualità della #sanità non si misura solo con le "punte di diamante".
Perchè il cittadino valuta l'accessibilità a tutti i servizi, non guarda le classifiche internazionali

The numbers tell a story we need to change 📊⚡
Women are ~50% of the world, yet <30% of researchers.
Closing the gap means better science:
→More diverse ideas
→More inclusive research
→Solutions for all
At #ESHRE, we believe gender equity in #STEM drives progress. Who inspires you in science?

Oggi è la Giornata Mondiale contro il Cancro. Felice di dare, nel mio piccolo, un contributo nella lotta contro questa brutta bestia lavorando nella diagnostica molecolare. È fondamentale diagnosticare il prima possibile per colpire con le giuste terapie. È un lavoro di squadra! 🧪

Human Reproduction turns 40! 🎉
We’re celebrating by revisiting landmark papers with commentaries from original authors. First up: Leese & Gardner revisit their 1989 study (Hardy et al., 1989 – doi.org/10.1093/humr...) with a new commentary (Leese & Gardner, 2026 – doi.org/10.1093/humr...).

Revisione sistematica MOLTO carina e interessante: i disturbi mentali sono un fattore di rischio per eventi negativi a livello cardiovascolare come un infarto. Si investe pochissimo nella prevenzione e cura quando si parla di salute mentale. Serve un cambiamento! 🧪
