Thank you for your support Arie! #WomenLifeFreedom #MahsaAmini
My students asked me to speak at the Delft event of the international Campus Rally for Iran. Here is the text of my speech -- "Mahsa Jina Amini and Anne Frank: Woman, Life, Freedom." #WomanLifeFreedom #MahsaAmini @IranianScholars avandeursen.com/2022/11/30/mah…
We stand united – united in support of Iranian women, united against Iran’s heinous behaviour, and united in our resolve to hold this oppressive regime accountable. Today, that unity was on display in Ottawa.
Thank you @UBC #MahsaAmini
UBC stands with the courageous women of Iran, and all who seek to protect their human rights and freedoms and stand up against repression and discrimination. Read our statement: bit.ly/3Rebeyt

Friendly advice to all PhD students out there: make sure you have a website, so that I can see who you are and what you are working on!
@ProfPaulRalph I hear you. But why spend days if you think they don’t help?
How much time do you spend writing a rebuttal for a paper under review at a major conference (on average)?
