Some deep-sea bacteria literally breathe metal, using iron and manganese like we use oxygen. If we ever harness their abilities, we might just revolutionize bioelectricity. www.sciencealert.com/these-bacter... #marinelife

DEI isn’t a feel-good slogan—it’s data-backed, peer-reviewed, and fundamental to better science. NSF bending to political pressure means ignoring decades of research. Science advances by evidence, not executive orders.

Exactly. Every. Single. NSF grant needs to have a "Broader Impacts" statement, so this makes whatever this ridiculous email order is apply to ALL NSF WORK. Insane.
