Opening for a tenure-track biology Assistant Professor at the University of Washington's Bothell campus, just northeast of Seattle.

This was a topic discussed in my group this week. anyone who might have a decent answer for this and or how to show an official transcript when they have not completed a semester yet ... we are all ears on suggestions...

Another excellent position at UT Dallas, this time in the Biological Science Dept: jobs.utdallas.edu/postings/30702 Our Neuroscience and Biological Sciences faculty are closely intertwined and collaborative creating a great place to launch your independent lab!

Fantastic opportunity at The Hospital for Sick Children. Please repost. www.nature.com/naturecareer...

Our department @ucdavisvetmed.bsky.social @ucdavis.bsky.social is hiring! We welcome research that diversifies or complements existing strengths in gastrointestinal, neuroimmune, musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory systems and/or developmental biology. @socdevbio.bsky.social @ascbiology.bsky.social

TT faculty job opening in #Neuroscience! We are looking for a colleague to join us in our fantastic Biology Department and Neuroscience Program at Brandeis. We are a group of *very* collaborative, supportive, and productive scientists (& humans!) so please apply academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/30961

Yes! Thanks a lot for acknowledging q.e.d! Some people alreday cited the platform on their papers like this: "Pre-submission review was conducted using qedscience.com" (but you can play with it if you wish)

NIH cuts save $9-10B short-term, but they’re killing 202K jobs & $46B in red-state economies (TX, FL, OH). $8T healthcare disaster loom, no cancer/Alzheimer’s cures, pricier drugs. Scientists fleeing to China? Bad deal. Fight for NIH! www.the-scientist.com/nih-leadersh... #AmericaFirst

Gutting to see friends and neighbors continue to lose their jobs- especially when their service to the Nation is so critical. Here are 3 things to do today.

Very excited to share our very exciting story on how misinherited chromatin affects individual cells to cause a behavior defect in C. elegans (a thread👇) www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

One of the first ever appointees to the current Genetic Predoctoral Training Program T32 from NIGMS. Proud of them all. And congrats to Monica!

🪧📣Rally tomorrow at CDC roybal campus main entrance (1600 Clifton rd). If you are in Atlanta stop by! 💚

The NSF posted an announcement on Sept 8th with “full solicitation coming” and no indication of the changes- consistent with a chaotic process occurring to make these decisions. At least they delayed the deadlines and have now provided reference letter deadline (earlier than application deadline).

Awesome to see they will award up to 3000 fellowships! Hope NSF posts full announcement- including recommendation deadline- soon! Last year recs were due before GFRP deadline so students should be requesting them now.

Scientists: Make your voice heard! There is a request for information on allowable publication costs in NIH grant awards. Provide your feedback by September 15. They have listed a number of options in the notice. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

🧪 And House appropriators say: no cuts to NIH budget! House subcommittee version just came out (link below). Holds NIH flat at $48 billion. To be clear: this is far from over. But a good sign that science still matters across both sides of aisle. YOUR VOICE MATTERS!!

🚨The Trump admin is trying to gut our future while already withholding $8 BILLION in science funding. On Thurs, Aug 28 @6PM ET, we’re calling South Asian voters in swing districts to demand their reps protect NIH + NSF funding 📍 Online: RSVP for the Zoom link: tinyurl.com/SUFSSA #StandUpForScience

So fun to read this interview as Mansuo was my classmate a "few" years ago. Her description of how we were encouraged to solve big, difficult questions resonates- as does the place being cohesive and highly collaborative. What a special place Princeton MolBio was in the 90's.

Calling all scientists and science supporters! You have a crucial role to play in countering the authoritarian threat we currently face in this country. Learn more about how you can stand up for the facts and truth that are essential for a free and democratic society. blog.ucs.org/gretchen-gol...

Proud PI only begins to describe seeing this. It’s why I do what I do. Chase those ideas Ed!

NIH is accepting comments about limiting research publication costs. 1. Disallow pub costs, 2. $2K limit, 3. $3K if reviewers are compensated, 4. 0.8% of award (so $250K grant can pay $2K/year on pubs), 5. $6K limit on pub + limit on % of grant spent on pub costs. 🧪 grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

I've now received five NIH notice of awards for new or continuing grants since January. Almost enough data to detect some patterns. Here are a few observations. 1/n

As stressful as it is to run a laboratory in the US right now, my thoughts are often with the NIH staff living in the awful chaos trying to preserve the whole enterprise. I’m grateful for every moment they choose not to give up. These people are the only thing keeping it from entirely collapsing.

Excited to be sharing the science from my lab on epigenetic inheritance and Alzheimer’s disease with the community. If you want to watch, here is the link www.youtube.com/live/O4AsL8m... @standupforscience.bsky.social @sci4ga.bsky.social #StandUpForScience actionnetwork.org/events/teach...

For anyone else who applied in April, I heard from my NIGMS PO that all equipment supplement decisions are on hold while they prioritize all the notice of awards going out for the primary grants.

Had a GREAT experience with this earlier this year. Highly recommend.

“So, while fiscal responsibility is important, it shouldn’t come at the cost of slashing investments that clearly pay off. Just as federal funding for interstates is essential for commerce, federal funding for the sciences is necessary for technology, innovation, health care and economic growth.”

At Expo 2025 in Osaka and flummoxed by the messaging at the USA pavilion promoting science and higher education (including Fulbright programs). If this is what we are most proud of, why are we crippling through funding cuts, visa revocations and unauthorized government review? A baffling exhibit.

If you have benefited from science and live in the US, please consider signing @standupforscience.bsky.social open letter regarding the EO issued on May 23rd! www.standupforscience.net/open-letter-...

If anyone is looking for a tech my amazing former undergrad Ashley is looking for a position. She’s on 2 publications too.

Deadline to comment is Friday. Turn that Friday science dread into something something comment! Also, it needs a hashtag, #FriSciDread

To my colleagues at Harvard with recently terminated NIH and NSF grants, please, please report them below. We’re told of at least 200 NSF grants and widespread NIH terminations. NIH: grant-watch.us/submit-nih.h... NSF: grant-watch.us/submit-nsf.h... And please spread the word 🙏
