[Admin] Liebe alle, @realscientists.de macht eine kleine Pause. In der Zwischenzeit suchen wir immer neue Wissenschaftler*innen, die eine Woche lang unseren Account übernehmen möchten. Wenn ihr Interesse habt, meldet euch unter: dasistsciencetwitter@gmail.com.
Portrait of Mikaela Iacobelli, an associate professor, smiling at the camera. She has shoulder-length light brown hair and is wearing small stud earrings and a navy blue top. The background behind her is a soft light blue. The overall graphic features a slate-blue backdrop with the “HMS – Her Maths Story” logo centered at the top. Her headshot is framed in the middle, and below it, on a torn-paper style white overlay, her name “Mikaela Iacobelli” appears in large black text, with “Associate Professor” written underneath in smaller capital letters.
“(...) what I like most about mathematics: there is room for many different trajectories, as long as you keep following questions that genuinely interest you.” - Mikaela Iacobelli

If you’ve never heard of Abigail Thorn before, I’m so excited that I get to tell you about her. She’s a brilliant and talented woman who gives the world incredible videos about important topics. Some say this is her magnum opus, but everything she makes is so good I can’t pick a single favorite
A first musical output of my research project on the reconstruction of degraded medieval sheet music, combining advanced imaging and processing in collaboration with expert musicologists and singers.
Massive thanks to everyone involved 🫶

This was a fun piece to write! I learnt quite a bit about the evolution of #math symbols while working on it. Thank you Alex Bellos, Amir Alexander, Kate Kitagawa, Raul Rojas & @sarah-hart.bsky.social for the nice conversations.

Re: the quote post …
I am a scientist, I don’t use products that generate text (“suggestions”) for me, like Grammerly, ChatGPT, Claude, etc. and I think none of these products should be anywhere near academic writing. It is not as hard as you want to make it seem. We can write our own texts.
"Just because a model correlates with neural and behavioral data, it is not sufficient for us to infer that the model is performing cognition: correlation does not imply cognition."

Danke, dass ich aussteige, habe ich ja schon gelegentlich kundgetan. Dazu gibt es einige Ideen (über die ich demnächst mal mehr schreiben werde). Ich will nur einfach darauf hinweisen, dass die Kosten für eine akademische Karriere wirklich in keinem Verhältnis zum Ertrag stehen. #IchBinHanna

Great to see my friend Christina Pagel featured in the THE for her work on tracking Trump's authoritarian actions.
"Scientist behind Trump Action Tracker uses skills in data collection to look for patterns in president’s seemingly scattergun approach"
We must create safe, supportive environments where women and girls can thrive, and develop strategies to dismantle the structural barriers that hinder gender equality in science. Real change goes beyond inspiration, it requires a transformation

100 % agree, especially for #firstgen students support networks & mentoring programmes can make a huge difference. 🤍
Sebastian Kurz dies, Sebastian Kurz das. Wenn einer weiß, wie er sich ins mediale Rampenlicht rückt, dann der in Schimpf und Schande zurückgetretene Altkanzler.
In der "Politikpension" umgibt er sich mit dem Who-is-who des Tech-Faschismus.
@nataschastrobl.bsky.social kommentiert:
Miosga-Redaktion nennt die AfD eine "Partei mit umstrittenen Positionen". Das ist der Stand 2026: Die Normalisierung ist so weit fortgeschritten, dass Rechtsextremismus im ÖRR als "umstritten" bezeichnet wird. Und nicht etwa als etwas, das Demokrat*innen entschieden ablehnen und bekämpfen müssen.
The fact that Epstein had ties to the scientific community is not news, but the enormous cache of documents released by the DOJ last week was still startling. It showed just how deeply Epstein was involved—how many were in his orbit, and how deeply involved he was with some research.
My reporting:
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

A group of Cambridge scientists stand together in a laboratory, smiling at the camera. One person holds a book titled ‘Self-Doubt’. A text banner reads: ‘Cambridge scientists share the truth behind their successes and reflect on the power of failure.’
What does it take to succeed in science? Failure.
Cambridge scientists from @labliston.bsky.social share the self-doubt behind their careers.
Self-Doubt by Adrian Liston from @stcatharines.bsky.social and the Department of Pathology is Out tomorrow 👇

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Die CDU/CSU-SPD-Bundesregierung könnte für 🇪🇺🇩🇪 ernsthaft die Probleme der Zeit angehen, stattdessen dackeln sie alle zusammen BRAV zu nem "WeLD"-Clownsevent über Springers Fickificki-Tiefgarage und hoffen auf ein Leckerli vom schwanzwedelnden Trump-Schoßhund Mathias, den sie für ein Herrchen halten.
Dazu lesen sollte man auch (noch einmal) den alten Newsletter von @amreibahr.bsky.social in #ArbeitInDerWiss von 2024: arbeitinderwissenschaft.substack.com/p/i-like-to-...

Looking forward to being back in Cambridge next week & taking part in this exciting workshop! 😍
Accurate and thorough representation of prior and related work is one of the cornerstones of good research.
It is shocking to me that so many published NeurIPS papers, even from top institutions, have fabricated references.
I recommend reading the original report: gptzero.me/news/neurips/
