Stoked to have Maura McGrail @mcgraillab.bsky.social, Iowa State University, at #ZDM18. Don’t miss her talk “Modeling neural development and disease with Cre/lox cell type-specific knockout” in the Technological Advances and Drug Discovery session on Oct 15th at 9:00 AM. #ZDMSociety #zdmsECI

One of my favorite societies. Great #science, amazing #hematopoietic community and resources. Check it out!

Had a wonderful visit to Iowa State Univ. for the GDCB seminar! Huge thanks to Raquel @espinlab.bsky.social & Clyde @clydecampbell-lab.bsky.social for the warm hosting. Loved exploring stem cell metabolism collaborations with ISU faculty & trainees—plus Iowa’s sweet corn! @einsteinmededu.bsky.social

We are very excited for your visit to #ISU, Keisuke!

#zebrafish genome update, our T2T assembly of the inbred strain of AB (M-AB) generated by my buddy Nori Sakai has now been released at NCBI and will be a second reference genome for zebrafish (GRCz12ab):

Don’t forget the American Society of Hematology!!! We have several!!!!!! Www.hematology.org/awards

These are the most challenging times for early-career scientists and engineers. My team is doing its bit to help by maintaining and even expanding our database of funding opportunities for early-career researchers. We found 437 of them. Download it freely here: research.jhu.edu/rdt/funding-...

🚨 There is ONE WEEK left to submit a late-breaking abstract for #ISEH2025 🏯! Submit your research by 28 July for a chance at a short talk or poster presentation. www.iseh.org/2025abstracts

Beautiful tribute to Dr. James Till by Dr. Norman Iscove. Truly honored to serve as editor for this legacy in @isehsociety.bsky.social, as a proud scientific descendant of Dr. McCulloch. Tx to Norman for insights into the early HSC era & Jim’s pivotal role. bit.ly/45NPeWb @einsteinmededu.bsky.social

Enjoyed watching this great perspective and advice from Len Zon!

Thank you #ISEH @macnamaralab.bsky.social for featuring the Espin lab at Lab Spotlight! 🩸 🐠 It was so much fun to participate!

Beautiful work by our colleagues here at #ISU and collaborators

ASH understands it's a tough time for #hematology research due to #NIH funding cuts. To support #researchers during this time, ASH's Bridge Grant now offers $150K funding, with waived critiques and no match needed.

Well deserved award for Dr. Gordon Keller! Gordon was a member of my thesis committee when I was a PhD student and his helpful suggestions made me a better scientist :) www.isscr.org/isscr-news/g...

Bluetorial: Non-Competitive Renewal (Continuation) Awards Normally, multiyear NIH grants are paid with awards each year, pending administratively reviewed progress reports. “NIH” has been slow in making these awards. This has led to $1.83 B being withheld from institutions through February 2025.

Updated the NIH CSR study section tracking sheet to include meetings originally scheduled for 03/17-03/21. There are now over *two hundred* study sections that didn't meet as scheduled. Likely an undercount due to things I couldn't scrape orig date was removed. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

New report shows that NIH grants fueled $95 billion in economic activity and 407,782 jobs in 2024. That's not to mention the countless lives that biomedical research has saved. Show me a better investment than that. www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

Nothing will kill more children than the ongoing decimation of CDC, NIH, and USAID work to lift vaccine uptake in the US and world. Child survival rose 75% in the last 50 years. Vaccines account for 40% of that. Measles vax alone was 60% of the benefit. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

As federal funding for research is uncertain, we need to diversify funding sources for our PhD students. Here is a comprehensive list of >160 PhD fellowships and funding opportunities, mostly from private foundations and scientific societies. Download it here: research.jhu.edu/rdt/funding-...

Mandatory high school civics class that isn’t just like “how a bill becomes law” or whatever but also “how NOAA powers your phone’s weather app” and “NIH helped make your asthma inhaler”

ATTENTION: TALENT AVAILABLE It appears that termination of SROs from institute review branches at NIH is underway (or worse). There are also program officers and SROs who have been terminated over the past month. IF YOU HAVE POSITIONS FOR SKILLED SCIENTIST-ADMINISTRATORS, PLEASE POST INFO HERE

Some good news: The Federal Register has just posted NIH study sections, which are to meet in late March. NIH announces some key grant-review meetings will restart in late March | Science | AAAS www.science.org/content/arti...
