"Academics who have experienced #bullying often describe patterns that suggest a different explanation entirely: bullying is a means for mediocre scientists to rise to the top. Some star academics reached their position because they are bullies, not in spite of it." nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

Rising star Selvan Demir in @michiganstateu #chemistry department was suddenly told to stay away. The university's actions stem from a yearlong investigation following a laboratory explosion, which led to allegations of abuse. @chronicle @AcademicParity chronicle.com/article/banish…

Protected academic #bullies rarely change. They just change #address, new university/lab/company, and the behavior goes with them: stolen credit, IP, and financial benefit from #investors. Everyone loses: students, companies, VCs, patients. nature.com/articles/d41586-0… @Nature

On June 15th, 2026, the Academic Parity Movement (APM) is bringing the global fight against #harassment to Bern, #Switzerland for: #STEM the #Bullying: The #European #Dialogue. We’re moving beyond just "talking" about the problem. We’re gathering the people who actually have the power to change the system: 🔬 Researchers sharing lived experiences. 🏛️ University Administrators implementing new policies. 💰 Funding Agencies rethinking accountability. ⚖️ Policy Advocates driving systemic reform. Harassment isn't just a personal issue—it’s a barrier to scientific innovation. It’s time to reshape the culture so talent can thrive unimpeded. 📅 When: June 15, 2026 📍 Where: Bern, Switzerland 🎟️ Register here: lnkd.in/d2UjB57p @DrNancyOlivieri, @alison_vogelaar, @JanetGHering, @NicoleLBoivin
