I just signed a petition to stop the auction of the Royal College of Physicians rare books collection and keep them accessible to the public. Hopefully it works! chng.it/GZHYnhVN.

It seem like it might be of interest to science educators.

Finally getting some time to work on my D’Arcy Thompson article. I've found interesting things on his childhood & time in college. It leaves me wondering how important are early, pre-professional experiences for scientists & why doesn’t it seem to be more of a thing in HPS?

The Graduate & Early Career Caucus condemns racialized violence and calls on all historians of science to respond. Read our full statement, add your signature, and find resources for anti-racist education and action on our website: hssgecc.wordpress.com. Please share widely!

I'm curious: How many of you know about the #TulsaMassacre when white vigilantes murdered hundreds of Black Americans and destroyed businesses in the place known as the Black Wall Street? If you're familiar, at what age did you learn of it?

After spending much of the previous decade as a Beaver at Oregon State, I finally see one the next state over in the middle of Boise.

“If Covid-19 is at its core a disease of misrelation with the othered human and more-than-human world, then perhaps the true lasting cure to our anthroparchal sickness will be found in reimagined relations born from the ashes of our past missteps.”

@Da3dalusStephen @picforth @noonessleep @thedialogist I’ve not found anything addressing Goethe’s core critique that Newtown’s spectrum is a special circumstance within a progression of prismatic phenomena in that it is the composition of 2 separate color spectrums.

@Da3dalusStephen @picforth @noonessleep @thedialogist I’m curious what you think specifically is false in Goethe’s ‘Color Theory.’ Most of what I’ve come across do not give many specifics, but rather assert Newton’s authority.

Mr. President: Oregon has been voting by mail for 22 years. We just had a great election yesterday. It was safe, secure, accessible. And we protected public health. What more do you need to know to be convinced, @realDonaldTrump?

My final PaulingBlog post on Linus Pauling’s relationship with the Guggenheim Foundation where he once again becomes a fellow, just as he had been at the beginning. This time his fellowship is for research on the asymmetric splitting of atoms with an atomic mass greater than 230.

In this week’s PaulingBlog post, I discuss Linus Pauling’s gradual disengagement from the Guggenheim Foundation due to his poor health & strained relationship with Henry Allen Moe. However, as Pauling worked with the foundation from a distance, he & Moe began patching things up.

My post on the PaulingBlog this week looks at the fallout between Linus Pauling & Henry Allen Moe after Moe submitted the Guggenheim Foundation’s response to the Cox Committee set up by Congress to investigate possible “un-American activities” by tax-exempt organizations.

In this week’s PaulingBlog post, I cover Pauling’s exchange with Henry Allen Moe of the Guggenheim Foundation on the Bush Report & the refusal of Pauling’s passport, which Moe thought was justified. Pauling obviously disagreed, but it did not appear to sour their relationship

This week on the PaulingBlog I look at Linus Pauling’s role in securing a Guggenheim Fellowship for his Caltech colleague Robert Corey. This time also marks the beginning of Pauling and Henry Allen Moe’s spat over the investigations of the Congress's Cox Committee.

My PaulingBlog post this week builds on Melvin Newman’s Guggenheim Fellowship troubles in last week's post. To address those problems, the foundation created a new, more flexible fellowship that Pauling recommended several scientists for and eventually benefitted from himself.

For this week, my post on the PaulingBlog covers the Guggenheim fellowship of chemist Melvin Newman & some of the financial obstacles that come with receiving funding.

This week, my PaulingBlog Post covers Linus Pauling’s battle with nephritis. Pauling’s ordeal eventually led to Guggenheim funds for Richard Lippman to write up Thomas Addis’s research and treatment that worked so well for Pauling.

My post this for the PaulingBlog covers Linus Pauling’s interactions with the mathematician Walter Pitts. As a result of these encounters, Pauling concluded that Pitts was a "strange fellow” but "extremely able” regarding math and physiology.
