Unpacking Merit, Fit, and Diversity: A Multifaceted Framework to Academic Gatekeeping in Social Sciences at U.S. R1 Research Universities

open access: yesSociological Inquiry, EarlyView.
This study draws on interviews with 50 sociology and business professors across two private and five public American universities, and proposes a novel “Merit‐Fit‐Diversit” framework to show how narratives of merit, fit, and diversity emerge at different evaluation stages of tenure‐track job candidates.

Finding Stars: Mapping the Geography of the World's Scientific Elites

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Scientific excellence is clustering ever more tightly in a few ‘superstar’ cities. Four—New York, Boston, London and the San Francisco Bay Area—now host 12% of the world's top scientists. In contrast, the Global South remains largely absent, with the notable exception of Beijing's dramatic rise.

Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Physiological cerebrospinal fluid interactions between brain and eye structures are altered after long‐duration spaceflight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight represents an extreme challenge, triggering adaptive responses including spaceflight‐associated neuro‐ocular syndrome, characterized by diminished visual acuity and ocular changes, which is a significant health risk for Mars missions.
