The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel –
I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.
Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

Non-Indigenous scientists will, time and time again, look to other non-Indigenous scientists’ “expertise” on ethically engaging with Indigenous peoples...

I wonder if the day will come when researchers will no longer be comfortable conducting studies/reviews to cover all 'LMICs'.
As it is not an organic category, I'm often left wondering what all 'LMICs' have in common to warrant such studies/reviews.
Whose research question?
