The authors of a Comment article in @NatRevMater make the case that women departing academia exacts a massive scientific and economic toll, and outline reforms to promote funding efficiency in the academic sector. go.nature.com/3GlpUJj

Very glad to share our work published in @CellGenomics! Especially big thanks to @eliasrfos , @anton_gh , @HaaseKerstin and J.Schulte.

Delighted to see this piece published @Nature .
Only about 1% of genomic studies use data from people of African ancestry, and those data are mainly from African Americans.

The mistaken presumption that the genetics of a relatively small diaspora must apply to all Africans threatens to widen the health disparities between people in Africa and those in wealthy nations.

New @theNASEM report on population descriptors: "Using a new framework for change, the report describes guiding principles and best practices for research." Committee members include @PRSdiversity investigator @genandgenes and external advisors @LuisaBorrell @rick_kittles
Our new report says that researchers should rethink how race, ethnicity, and ancestry labels are used in #genomics and #genetics research.
The report provides guidance to help researchers choose appropriate population descriptors for their studies.

Diversity in genomic research is critical for the equitable translation of genomic advances to improve health. Please consider submission of relevant manuscripts to this special issue of @GenomeMedicine (co-edited by me and @SFatumo from @LSHTM) that addresses this topic head-on
Check out the Call for Papers for our new special issue, 'Advancing human genetics in underrepresented populations' guest edited by @SFatumo from @LSHTM & @KrishnaAragam from @broadinstitute.

The @covid19_hgi has released a manuscript covering the results from the latest data release.
At 51 loci we can start clearly mapping biological pathways involved in COVID-19 severity and susceptibility. For example, entry defense by airway mucus.

And from the original paper by Wapman, K. H. et al (2022): "gains in women’s representation over this decade result from demographic turnover and earlier changes made to hiring, and are unlikely to lead to long-term gender parity in most fields" #womeninscience
nature.com/articles/d41586-0… “proportion of new recruits who are women has remained flat or decreased since 2011” #womeninacademia
Great overview. I really enjoyed the read! Thank you @queersprings science.thewire.in/the-scien…
What I found 'horrifying' about this article is that the author thinks science was a totally unbiased "endeavor predicated on pursuing knowledge and truth" up till now. That and that the article is a continuum of weak statements and half-truths.
To the extent that this is true (and I fear most if not all of it is), it is utterly horrifying.

Racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities are ubiquitous. However, disparities shouldn't exist within a clinical trial providing participants with education, access to care, and even healthy food, right?
