Buy 2, get 3 FREE Science Stickers (EXTENDED TO APRIL)
OK, it’s time to basically give these away, given the hard times our community is facing for STEM research funding. This is the best deal we can give where we don’t lose money every order. Grab a sticker for your upcoming rally or show your support for science (and diversity in our STEM workforce) on your laptop, Stanley, or notebook.
Visit our stickers collection here, add 5 to your cart and 3 of them will be free! We also don’t upcharge shipping at all, so this is purely just getting these out into the world when we need them the most! If the code doesn’t auto-apply, use “STANDUPFORSCIENCE” at checkout.
Science Careers: Free jobs database
Quite a few scientists are finding themselves unexpectedly without a job last month. Just because there are sweeping top-down cuts doesn’t mean there aren’t still great jobs available in your specialty! This Science Careers database is hosted by the journal Science and supported by AAAS. Right now is has nearly 1000 jobs listed in every field you can think of. Please forward this email to a friend who’s looking for new employment to get them started!
Just for fun: Science Cartoon
To keep your funding, all you need is a good rebranding…

April behind-the-scenes news:
Standing up for science in Washington D.C.
Last week was a big one for science advocacy. A grad school friend and I drove from Ohio down to Washington D.C. to attend the main “Stand Up For Science” rally outside the Lincoln Memorial. I got to meet some “internet friends” in real life finally, which was awesome! I passed out hundreds of “Science is for Everyone” stickers and tattoos in the crowd and even got to meet Francis Collins from the NIH!
