Enabling Fieldwork for All (EFFA) Framework: Supporting physical, social, financial, and psychological safety in the field Comprehensive review of fieldwork safety literature across disciplines yields synthesized recommendations.

Excited to share a new paper written by a AAAS Policy Fellow I mentor, Dr. Lisa Walsh.

β€œThis review synthesizes literature on fieldwork safety across scientific disciplines, highlighting four facets of safety for leaders and researchers to address: physical, social, financial, and psychological.”

I’d assume so also. We used to play all them, every year, or at least close to that.

They’re College Basketball’s Only Unbeaten Team. Why Does Everyone Think They’re Terrible? At 29-0, the Miami RedHawks have the best record in the country. But advanced metrics are skeptical of how good they really are.

Millet needs replacement/overhaul, but not at the expense of Cook field. I cannot imagine how bad traffic will be.. I was in Wilson for my freshman year- so many Cook field nights of chaos :)

Tired of AI hype posts? You might like my sober assessment of whether AI-generated summaries are suitable for studying and research. Spoiler alert, they are not.

The text is primarily aimed at students and researchers, but has much broader relevance. So share freely!: www.tue.nl/en/our-unive...

If this happens, it’s about time (plus 20 years late, but better late than never). Big donors definitely exist!

Someone captured my colleagues an I servicing the cameras during KΔ«lauea’s episode 42. We stopped to discuss what we were seeing, but because I talk with my hands it looks like I’m fixing to push someone in…

Hundreds of pupfish at Salt Creek in Death Valley! The flood damaged boardwalk has been replaced and is a nice walk. The fish have survived here since the ice ages in water that at times is three times as salty as the sea and sometimes as much as 100Β° (1/2)

This is…unbelievable. Unconscionable. The story grows more nightmarish with every sentence, every paragraph. The worst part? Public servants who are inept or corrupt, maybe both, more concerned about inconveniencing an oil company than protecting human health.

This is a major announcement from a major vaccine manufacturer that was made a few weeks ago in Davos that made zero news.

The current FDA and HHS are not in the business of keeping people healthy.
