Most of the researchers that we have seen leaving, and we think it's about 20,000 or so, have been women with children or older researchers. Researchers are responding differently depending on where they are in Ukraine. Many agencies in the US, in the UK or organizations are creating fellowships and ways to support Ukrainian scientists during this difficult time.
The ongoing war in Ukraine has devastated the global economy, rocked geopolitics, killed thousands of people and displaced millions. Science too has been affected and the impacts on research are being felt more widely than just in Ukraine and Russia.
In this episode of Nature's Takes we discuss the war's impact on publishing, international collaborations, climate change and energy, and the destructive impacts on scientists themselves. And as the war continues, we consider the future of science in the face of a new political climate.
