Viele in der Schweiz denken, wir seien ungefähr ein Durchschnittsland, wenn es darum geht, wie stark die Frauen ihre Lohnarbeit runterschrauben, wenn sie Mütter werden. Das ist inkorrekt. Wir haben eine Rekordhohe Child Income Penalty für Frauen. #Fachkräftemangel Thread 👇:
Hier sind die "child penalties" von Einkommen von Müttern für verschiedene Länder: Wieviel weniger Frauen nach der Geburt eines Kinders längerfristig verdienen. Dänemark 21% Schweden 26% USA 31% UK 44% Österreich 51% Deutschland 61% Schweiz 68% (!) henrikkleven.com/uploads/3/7…

All of these are now available as .svg files at bioicons.com! I'll be adding more over the next few months, and intend to expand the fungal-related stuff that's on #BioIcons! 🍄 Shoutout to @simonduerr for this incredible resource and for helping with my submission!
Starting to build up my own library of figures for use in scientific stuff- publications, presentations, teaching :) Nothing particularly complicated, but I do like having complete control over size, colour and shape :)

Hugely relieved, and grateful to all who have worked so hard to keep this ship afloat for now, and to the funders who have stepped in 👇👏
Full room at the BRC resources discussion #KMCB2024 by NIAID PO Brown & VEuPathDB PI Roos. Extreme dismay over global impact of NIAID decision, but sustained applause at news that VEuPathDB will return, through generosity of Fdn Adv Sci/Med, @open_phil @ChanZuckerberg Penn & UGA
