A colleague received bad news from her NIH program officer today: my colleague’s grant got a great score, but NIH still can’t pay it, and my colleague will have to closer her lab. The call ended with the program officer (not my colleague) crying. Awful on so many levels.

Late breaking abstract submission are now open until slots are filled! Don't miss out on presenting your research at the premier meeting for eating behavior. Looking forward to seeing everyone in Philly!

FINALLY HR has the posting up for a postdoc opening in my lab ! Particularly interested in folks with electrophysiology, photometry, or behavioral experience. www.gwu.jobs/postings/125...

A true legend of behavioral neuroscience, and exceptionally kind man. His generous mentorship touched many of us who never even worked with him. The field he helped shape mourns him today.

Great opportunity here. Lorenzo gives excellent talks and his work is outstanding!

Thanks for visiting with us; it was a fun day for all!

The historical perspective in the background of the report from Yale is interesting, but their recommendations-- I too sometimes find myself sounding like my grandma, but no tech on any kind in classrooms? Hard line admissions? That's your forward-looking rec? president.yale.edu/sites/defaul...

Second R01 for the lab submitted despite it all. Levi is taking all the credit for it (co-I of course). Anyway continue calling your senators and reps. ICE has not left and we are still under a paramilitary occupation. My students are not safe and shouldn’t have to feel this way.
