Warren Currie π¦ π¦The #DFO #ECCC #CSMI π¨π¦πΊπΈ #LakeOntario cruise is moving along nicely on the CCGS #Limnos. The stations off Oswego, NY take a little longer because these are the deepwater stations for Lake Ontario with max depth of 244 meters (802 feet). These are stations where we will most likely catch Mysis diluviana, an important #FoodWebs #zooplankton. We should be done the US waters stations by end of today and move to the north shore to complete the survey. #CooperativeScience #Plankton #Chemistry

No, I'm not talking about evaluation issues at all here. I'm actually talking about something much different.
I'm talking about the perception of our field as one full of fraudsters that have to be policed or they will get away with something. I think these are rare (but real) and I think it is important that their description be balanced with positive signals about a cooperative community.
I want people to post thank yous to social media when someone helps them with a piece of code they are having trouble with. I want people to post thank yous to social media when a positive discussion leads to a new idea. I want people to post thank yous to social media when a lab lets their postdoc visit for a week and teaches them a new technique. Or sends them the new viruses without requesting co-authorship or payment. These things all happen lots of times. It's part of the amazing cooperative science community we have. #cooperativescience
What I discovered in writing my #ChangingHowWeChoose book, is that that perception matters. A lot.
