who else here notice that scientific institutions are run by crusty boomer grant whores with laughable credentials? case in point editor-in-chief of nature:
>Thesis Primary sex determination mechanisms in Caenorhabditis elegans (1998)
>She briefly worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Imperial Cancer Research Fund, working on the notch signaling pathway of zebrafish in gut development.[7][10]
>Skipper joined Nature in 2001 as an associate editor for Nature Reviews Genetics.[7]
>In 2002 she was appointed chief editor of Nature Reviews Genetics, and was promoted to associate publisher in 2008.[14][15]
>n 2018 she worked with Nature and Estée Lauder Companies to launch a global award for women in science.[17][18] She became the first ever woman editor-in-chief of Nature in its 150-year history in May 2018, when she succeeded Philip Campbell.[19][20][2]
so after looking through the mircoscope, doing some pcr and sequencing briefly she spent most of the time writing reviews and is now top brass at nature. not one interesting discovery, let alone something revolutionary like crispr, gene therapy medicine, etc. fucking laughably pathetic. nothing. fucking c elegan sex and some zebrafish gut shit. and she gets to decide what is published. yikes. lmao. no wonder everyone worth their salt just flocks to silicon valley or wall street or military.
