The research fairy @bgcarlisle@scholar.social

Saw this book in a local bookstore:

Botanticum, by Katie Scott & Kathy Willis.

It has newly done botanical illustrations that are gorgeous. It's also a children's book.

I often feel like I struggle finding internships/research opportunities/interesting things to do over the summer. I usually find things through my department's mailing list or by stumbling across them online. How do you usually find opportunities?

A recent survey found 1 in 5 LGBT adults has avoided medical care out of fear of discrimination and 80 percent of physicians say they feel "not competent" to treat LGBT patients. So, medical schools are identifying ways to better instruct on LGBT health.

People who do a lot of reading for a living (grad students, authors, professors, etc.): how do you keep up with all of it?
