What is more important? 1.5M USD or sticking to your values? Huge credits to the Python Software Foundation for fighting for diversity and inclusiveness. This is more important today then ever. https://www.osnews.com/story/143643/python-software-foundation-has-bigger-spine-than-big-tech/

Today, Dr. David Wishart, a professor of biology AND computer science at University of Alberta won Canada’s highest honour for science & engineering, the Herzberg Gold Medal, for his pioneering work in metabolomics. Years ago, I worked with Dr. Wishart’s equally brilliant wife, Debby Waldman, when she wrote a humour column and book reviews for the Edmonton Journal. So it was a double thrill to be at the big NSERC reception, hosted by House of Commons Speaker Francis Scarpaleggia, to cheer on one of Edmonton’s scientific giants. Mazel tov to David and to the University of Alberta.. #yeg #UAlberta #Edmonton #NSERC #metabolomics #ComputationalMetabolomics #cdnpoli
