The context is literally in the article. The research she is literally winning a NOBEL PRIZE for was not deemed good enough for UPenn, and she was not reinstated to tenure track.

It’s not some “kumbayah I need to work harder” bullshit you see on corporate sales teams. How the fuck does one exactly “work harder” to improve their “personal” mRNA sequencing methods?
