It's a Friday afternoon and I'm actively procrastinating, so here goes: Everything I've Learned about Networking in a Virtual World. A thread from an introvert's perspective. (1/) Image
I have a lot of conversations with students and young professionals starting out in #water, #sustainability, and #SciComm. From my admittedly unscientific sampling, #networking is a word that tends to carry negative associations. (2/)
Here's my reframe. Networking is an intentional process, focused not just on building connections, but on building the right connections. Successful networking means finding supporters, advocates, and even friends who will stay with you for the long term. (3/)

This week, Jordan Peterson published a commentary in the National Post. In it, he defends the scientific journal Angewandte Chemie and researcher Tomas Hudlicky for an essay published earlier this year that spoke out against diversity in science. Here's why Peterson is wrong: 1/6
Peterson says: "Hudlicky voiced a smattering of opinions deemed unacceptable by that small number of people who both read his submission and were somewhat active on Twitter." Let's flip that. Scientific institutions/journals have not historically been leaders on diversity. 2/6
Twitter, for all its flaws, provides a platform to call out discriminatory attitudes and opinions that may have been accepted in academic circles in the past. This isn't a case of Twitter being biased. It's a case of broken institutions being held to account. 3/6
