In the US just 17% of new inventors are women; in universities, 26% are women. To close the gap, universities need to make patenting & technology transfer more visible & accessible in research labs. Promote women to lead research labs & mentor students. mitsloan.mit.edu/ideas-made-t...

Reading this & thinking about the 2021 BC Heat Dome. With 619 deaths in BC, it was a tragic reminder of the dangers of extreme heat. North Park is an urban heat island — there is a lot of work to be done to make neighbourhoods like North Park safe, cool, & resilient as temperatures rise.

Good thread if you want an update on what Mark Carney and The Liberal Party are laying out post-election. A lot of it isn’t great.

I felt like I understood this concept. And then I read Careless People (highly recommend) and was *still* shocked at the levels of manipulation.

When all the advance voting numbers came out and ppl thought it would be way up, I wondered if it would be like our BC election when the turnout didn't really go up but actually ppl just like advance voting.

Aw, this is terrible. This is what happens when people *don't* vote strategically, although it can be hard to know what to do. Our voting system needs an upgrade. #cdnpoli

Whelp, the CBC news interactive page is having a very hard time loading. newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/fe...

It pains me to say this, but CBC’s election coverage is embarrassingly bad. Graphs, map, and the talking heads all display a shocking lack of even basic understanding of what the early poll numbers mean.

I would love it if we could all consistently use another word to describe the ideology of the group of people currently in power because the last thing it is is "conservative."

I've directed a number of MA projects, but today was the first time I got to facilitate an MA thesis defense for a student who will be continuing on with rhetorical studies, pursuing a PhD at UT Austin this fall! I'm proud, honored, and so excited to see where this project goes. #TeamRhetoric
