Don't have a team of potential editors already in mind, but would like to be part of the team that leads @estsjournal.bsky.social ? Send me an email! I am collecting up names and hold a Zoom call in a few weeks to introduce folks to each other and answer questions.

Saw that Outlook has a new pride color theme... I immediately tried it out, and it is disappointingly subtle. I really want to submit a support ticket that just says PRIDE THEME NOT GAY ENOUGH.

New publication day! Happy to announce that our paper on irreproducibility experiences and mental health is out. We found that irreproducibility is a nearly universal experience for biomedical science grads, and that ~25% had emotional responses to it that that interfered with their work/lives.

Trying to start off the new academic year right by moving away from the bird site, so I'm getting myself set up on Mastodon and trying this out as well. Here's a little about me: I'm an STS scholar, but I also spend time in the history of sci/tech/med, metascience, and medical humanities.
