I'm glad to have led the development of the MCAA Whistleblowing Channel with @fbajanca and @franciscomrvg, in order to provide a safe tool for researchers who face unethical situations within and outside @Mariecurie_alum. More details in the latest issue of the MCAA Newsletter.
📢 The 36th #MCAA#Newletter is now published!
