It would be disastrous.

Aktuell 5 Stunden südlich davon: Trondheim :). Ich liebe die Idee einer soziologischen Poliklinik. Und Kardamom- und Zimtschnecken auch.
Im Berner Westen gibt es zwischen #Hochhäusern viele ungenutzte Rasenflächen. Nun hat ein Quartierbewohner ein Projekt für einen #Gemeinschaftsgarten initiiert. Das hat Potential.

Was misst der HLS-EU-Q16 eigentlich, wenn er in sozial benachteiligten Gruppen eingesetzt wird? Neues Paper von Himal Singh legt nahe, dass es große Verständnisschwierigkeiten bei Personen mit Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit gibt.

„Etwa 450 Euro pro Kopf werden in der Schweiz in die Schienen investiert, fast viermal so viel wie in Deutschland mit 114 Euro. In der Schweiz fährt man pro Kopf 2464 Kilometer im Jahr Bahn, in Deutschland nur 1206.“ www.rnd.de/wirtschaft/s...

In der Wissenschaft wird meist verlangt, dass Bewerber*innen Unmengen an Zeit investieren, um zu beweisen, dass sie auch wirklich (ja, wirklich!) gut genug für die Stelle sind. Warum das Motivation tötet und letztlich nur abschreckt, dazu @amreibahr.bsky.social. #ArbeitInDerWiss #IchBinHanna

6k euro to publish a paper in Lancet Public Health
Let’s just sit & think about that
Students & post docs need these publications for their career
