@seanryanforbuffalo.bsky.social A valued member of the scientific community right here in Buffalo is being held by ICE. What can you as mayor do about this?

If you're attending #ACNP2026 and would like to learn more & discuss this important topic with the authors, come to this study group👇👇 on Tues morning (1/13) at 9 AM! See you there 😄

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Lol. #bizarroDavid

New year, new era of discovery. Thank you for all of your support this year and we can’t wait to share 2026 with you. Happy New Year from all of us at The Jackson Laboratory!

If you have some time off these holidays have another look at our beautiful review on #LC neuropeptides 🔵🧠

Heads up I will be hiring a postdoc and some techs in the new year! Lots of ephys and fiber photometry. If you've got soon to graduate PhD students or undergrads, send 'em my way!

Happy holidays, from my family to yours.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

Great news! We are looking for an NHP neuroscientist as the assistant professor level. We have no preconceived ideas -- looking for the most exciting research going. If you have any questions, please reach out. universityaffairs.ca/search-jobs/...

Congratulations to Harriet De Wit, Ph.D., for being awarded the Barbara Fish Memorial Award! ☺️ #ACNP2026 Please click here ➡️tinyurl.com/2ndexz5k#ACNP2026to watch the nominator video by Abraham Palmer, Ph.D.

Congrats to all the new Mentees and Mentors. Look forward to meeting you at the annual meeting

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

We are thrilled to announce that the preliminary program for the 2026 GRC on the Frontal Cortex is now live! www.grc.org/frontal-cort... Registration is now open for both the GRC and our GRS, chaired by @albitc.bsky.social and @jorge-miranda.bsky.social!

Happy International Day of LGBTQIA+ People In STEM! How are you celebrating it? #LGBTQSTEMDay #PrideInSTEM

Six of the nine Nobel Prize winners this year work in the U.S. Three of the six were born outside the U.S., which is the pattern most years. No country has benefited more from welcoming immigrants from around the world. www.nobelprize.org

Good morning, #psycgooddeedday2025 ! Binghamton University is ready to go!!

The court’s three liberal justices – Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson – dissented from the decision and apparently are the only ones upholding the Constitution and protecting the power of Congress. Congress would do well to recognize this.

NEW: I arrived in the U.S. eight weeks ago to report on how the administration’s immigration crackdown was playing out from the front lines. What I saw Thursday was the culmination of ICE’s aggressive behavior. By @tilleckert.com

New position: Research assistant in the Manzano Lab at Binghamton... early life development, reward seeking and inhibition and single neuron imaging in behaving mice... please repost! binghamton.interviewexchange.com/jobofferdeta...

a lot of our trainees are thinking about going abroad for GS (who can blame them) but they're seeing that Masters Degrees are required for PhD programs? Can folks weight in on this?

Few much-needed reminders: 1️⃣Strive to give your best, recognizing that your best can change daily, and 2️⃣ don’t forget kindness to yourself. It isn’t selfish; it’s essential for success in every aspect of life. #Kindness

I just sent this email to Director Bhattacharya and am sending him a hard copy by registered mail. 1/14

As the chair of a large or complex department, many days start with disappointment that you haven't yet gotten to doing the big, special things that you aspire(d) to...

May this portion of the dissent by Ketanji Brown Jackson haunt John Roberts forever and be the final word on his tenure as Chief Justice.

Please share with trainees in the San Diego area! The International Society for Developmental Psychology @isdp.org will have a limited number of waivers available for local trainees (undergraduate, graduate, postbacc, and others) to attend the 2025 annual meeting! 🌴 Apply via QR code/link on flyer:

Let’s talk @storiesofwin.bsky.social. I’m flattered to be among their profiles (coming soon) & I want to elevate the team behind this terrific effort. /1 www.storiesofwin.org

Faculty opening for candidates "working with human, non-human animal, or computational models to advance the understanding of brain and behavior relationships in the context of lifespan development" Stony Brook Psychology is an exceptional dept with amazing colleagues apply.interfolio.com/171691

URM faculty received 7% more negative votes & were 44% less likely to receive unanimous votes from P&T committees -evidence that P&T decision-making processes contribute to the sustained underrepresentation of URM faculty in tenured faculty positions www.nature.com/articles/s41...

"..NIH remains dedicated to fostering open, competitive, and accountable science and supporting investigators as they pursue innovative, and sometimes controversial, questions grounded in rigorous methodology.".....unless you're study anything related to trans people....then you can just fuck off.

Thrilled to share a new systematic review where we examined sex differences in the acute cognitive effects of cannabis in humans Overall, not much evidence of sex diffs (6/29 studies, 8/216 variables found sex diffs) BUT... www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

New: NSF has reinstated the suspended UCLA grants, following yesterday's court order. Here's the email to Chancellor Frenk. (The ~490 NIH & 2 DOE grants remain suspended)

I'm curious if any senior nonhuman primate Neuro-AI researchers would be interested in joining Queen's University if we were to obtain a research chair position (full professor level)? Could you please send me a confidential message to indicate your interest? [email protected]

The Air Force and Navy are poised to cancel two nearly complete projects worth about $800 million because they want Salesforce and billionaire Peter Thiel's Palantir, to have a chance to win similar projects. The result could be a costly do-over. www.reuters.com/world/us/how...

The University of California system is publicly mobilizing against federal attacks. That’s historic. It's time for ALL of us in US #highered to act. Join our movement at standtogetherhighered.org. #academicsky #highered #standtogether 🔗 universityofcalifornia.edu/get-involved/stand-up-for-uc

We should have the House right now. Let me say it again: we should have the House. This ain’t just a Texas problem, it’s a national problem. They’re stealing seats to keep power, and that’s how we ended up with Speaker Johnson instead of Speaker Jeffries. They can’t win fair, so they cheat.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

@katherinejwu.com got me on the record. My terminated colleagues are scientists and were committed service members. The #NIH lost so much talent.

Donald Trump doesn't want voters to hold him accountable in 2026 for his corruption. So he's trying to rig Texas maps and dilute the votes of communities of colors and working families. We can't let his scheme succeed in Texas — or it'll spread to the entire country. youtu.be/fZyqD9KL4TU

The more I see of Jay Bhattacharya in action, the more I settle on this conclusion: He is an opportunist. He is a mediocre scientist who could never get the NIH Directorship or an equivalent job by merit. Which is exactly why the Trump admin installed him. They use this to control him.

World Athletics says that "The SRY gene is a reliable proxy for determining biological sex." The guy who literally discovered the gene and has spent the last 35 years researching it says they're wrong. theconversation.com/world-athlet...

Four-month delayed notice of award last week... email reminder of upcoming RPPR for said grant this week.

LOLSOB I was in grad school in the biomedical sciences in the 90s: the misogyny was off the charts AND we had so little language to describe it.
