If your course does not include some activities in which ethics of your field and its applications are the focus, it’s time to rewrite your syllabus.

Je continue sur le sujet des similarités entre le traitement des violences sexuelles au travail et celui des fraudes scientifiques.
Une ressemblance frappante entre les deux est la réticence exprimée dans l'un et l'autre cas par certains de mes collègues face aux politiques et outils visant à faciliter le signalement de comportements inappropriés ou de suspicions de fraude. Pour les violences sexuelles au travail on pense par exemple à la mise en place de cellules d'écoute au sein de l'université, pour les fraudes scientifiques il s'agit notamment de PubPeer ou autres outils similaires.

LOL! This is very much like the early days of #Twitter.
Endless posts about people waking up, eating a meal, yadda, yadda, yadda.
You might call all of that "noise" but even it if is, it's still better than toxic wasteland of every other social media platform out there.

One of the nicest things about Mastodon so far is having a very scientific and academia focused feed where I can discover and follow those working in fields where I don't have a background.
It is wonderful for seeing the diversity of research and being inspired by the works of others.
I'm not a big poster, but more of a reader and listener on social media. But maybe I'll break that pattern on Mastodon, who knows?
As for an #introduction, I'm a scientist/engineer turned medical editor, where I see myself as a "knowledge translator" between researchers and their audience(s) and a liaison between the ivory tower and the interested public.
The rest of the time, I'm trying to appreciate living the introvert dream in pandemic time, finding myself taking more precautions than most people I know and embracing the challenge of the After Times, to the extent possible. :)
