How should scientists respond to groups that reject, reinterpret or claim scientific findings for their own political purposes?

Grace developed a virtual screening approach focused on cavities identified in the (NPSL2) RNA structure. She then validated screening "hits" experimentally. Importantly, this approach is broadly applicable to any RNA with a known 3D structure.

Sofia Lövestam's vault structure is now online in Structure @cellpress.bsky.social. 🥳 How beautifully explorative is #cryoEM! We never planned to do this. The vaults just came down with #amyloids from human brain tissue, and Sofia decided to have a closer look. www.cell.com/structure/fu...

Last week's EO is in clear violation of federal law that gives Institute Directors e.g., the Director of NINDS or NIGMS etc, the final decision making authority in issuing grants of more than $50,000. The Institute Directors know this. See b), 3), a) www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/... 1/

It’s difficult to overstate just how reckless and incompetent this is. mRNA technology saved millions of lives during the COVID-19 crisis. Now, RFK Jr. is undermining the science that could protect us from the next pandemic—and putting American lives at risk.

Negotiating with terrorists? This sure looks like a hostage situation.

Asking for help is not admitting failure, but rather using your resources to ensure that expectations are met. Knowing how to ask for help ensures that you get help that is actually useful, or even crucial, in meeting your goals. cen.acs.org/careers/care... #chemsky

Hard to say it better and more evenly than the article below. The NSF really needs our support. What has been happening to NSF incredibly confusing. Defunding and physically disassembling the NSF would be a mistake of epic proportions. No one benefits. We will lose a critical innovation driver.
