faculty_hiring_us: Faculty hiring networks in the US (2022)
Networks of faculty hiring for all PhD-granting US universities over the decade 2011–2020. Each node is a PhD-granting institution, and a directed edge (i,j) indicates that a person received their PhD from node i and was tenure-track faculty at node j during time of collection (2011-2020). This dataset is divided into separate networks for all 107 fields, as well as aggregate networks for 8 domains, and an overall network for …

In his op ed in the WaPo,
Jay Bhattacharya has shown that he should not be taken seriously. He’s DEFINITELY not a real scientist.
If people don’t like science should we ignore the potential it has?
That’s not how it works.
Science doesn’t care about your feelings.

Terence Tao is often called the “Mozart of Math.”

But for the past few weeks, he’s been preoccupied with more run-of-the-mill pecuniary concerns: fundraising.

Sincere question for the HCI community (and all other international research communities who disseminate research primarily at conferences):
1. When any conference is in the US, will international folks risk coming? I already know prominent folks who say they won't.
2. When any conference is outside the US, will any international students within the states risk going? My PhD student has been advised not to, so I'm giving his talk overseas for him.

The firefly luciferase is being used as a 'reporter gene' here, to reveal the Kalanchoe's 24-hour rhythms in the lab. Otherwise they are invisible.
Actually the luciferase glow is not directly visible either! It's so faint that the video was taken with super-sensitive cameras, closer to astronomy kit than to your smartphone. These are transgenic plants, developed for lab science in my now-#EdinburghUni colleague Jessica Pritchard's PhD, with James Hartwell in Liverpool.
She reported this cool new science in a #preprint last year:

Hey @… I was just listening to the great literary olfactoloy episode with @allylouks.bsky.social€, but I feel that the existence/role of human pheromones has been a bit misrepresented.
I have worked on mammalian pheromones for my PhD, and I have encountered (at least) two major definitions of the term "pheromone", one based on the function of a substance, and the other, which I personally prefer, on the information flow involved in it (https://doi.org/10.1159/000096511).
Based on the Sbarbati & Osculati definition, a pheromone would be a component that conveys information between individuals of the same species.
There is also quite a bit of research that argues for the existence of human pheromones (e.g. https://doi.org/10.1002/ar.a.20125, https://doi.org/10.1002/ar.a.20125, https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1198331)
However, the discussion on the existence of human pheromones is difficult, as it touches on the topic of free will as many reactions to odor are involuntary. During the International Symposium on Olfaction and Taste held in Iceland in 2024, there have been several session on human olfaction touching on sensitive aspects such as olfaction-mediated effects on mate choice and pregnancy, but none of the researchers dared utter the word pheromone, while colleagues working on other mammals where happily talking about pheromonal effects for very similar topics.
Long story short, I feel that saying there is no hard evidence for human pheromones is misrepresenting the current research.
Fun Fact: ~35ya my sister and I were simultaneously users of what I understood to be the only 2 Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometers in the world, the instrument used for measuring stable isotope ratios. She was a PhD student at Columbia doing paleoclimate work and I was at WashU studying the effect of rHGH on mid-term nitrogen balance and correlation to long-term growth in short kids without GH deficiency.

Jad Tarifi, who founded Google's first generative AI team,
told Business Insider that he would not encourage people to get a Ph.D. to cash in on the AI hype.
"AI itself is going to be gone by the time you finish a Ph.D.
Even things like applying AI to robotics will be solved by then.
So either get into something niche like AI for biology, which is still in its very early stages,
or just don't get into anything [AI] at all," Tarifi said.
