Does anyone have examples of F32 supporting documents in the new format (starting August of this year) they'd be willing to share? We're specifically looking for goals, preparedness, training activities and timeline for an F32 resubmission for the December deadline. Any help very much appreciated! 🙏

Amazing turn out for @bummpatucsd.bsky.social Welcome Lunch♥️♥️♥️

Another Neal lab retreat in the books. We mapped our yearly goals, came up with collaborative big picture ideas for future projects and most importantly, strengthened our team bond 💪🏽we are all in this together💪🏽

During these uncertain times, I’m very happy to see that my institution, @scripps.edu has an open tenure-track Assistant Professor position. Any field in Chemistry or Biology is welcome. I’d especially love to see fellow neuroscientists apply. Please repost! apply.interfolio.com/174756

"To retreat from [diversity, equity and inclusion] is to close the door to possibilities for better science and a better future. This is not the time to step back. It’s unquestionably the time to step forward." @anthrofuentes.bsky.social www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

First run in at GRS/GRC molecular membrane biology conference. GRS has been an amazing start to an exciting week ahead! #GRC #ProctorAcademy

“If you cut out these diversity measures, you're going to make science full of people that are very elite…Full of people who have grown up with a large amount of privilege, who were able to work in a lab in high school because their dad was a prof at Cornell.” 🧪 www.nytimes.com/2025/07/10/u...

Reflecting on the resilience of @bummpatucsd.bsky.social community and grateful to the #Wileypress #JCellularPhys for supporting our undergrad & master’s scholars and spotlighting their amazing research. It’s more important than ever to come together to support the future generation of trainees!

On Juneteenth, and in this era of rising vaccine disinformation, it is useful to contemplate that three centuries ago, the knowledge of an African slave introduced the concept of immunization to America, launching the first successful public inoculation campaign  🧵Thread 1/8 #Juneteenth #Vaccines

This was the last @hhmi.org conference Lilly and Yuh-Nung Jan attended as investigators. They're becoming HHMI emeritus but still run a thriving NIH-funded lab. From cloning the first potassium ion channel (Shaker) to decoding neuronal development, the Jans have made a huge impact.

Many brilliant scientists are now being punished by having our funding terminated because we are from underrepresented groups. We did everything right and we EARNED these awards. Remember us when you’re making decisions on whether DEI should be sacrificed to “protect” research funding. #InMyFeelings

I interviewed for the Big Picture Science podcast to be aired on NPR this week, and I am overwhelmed by how well it turned out. Please listen and share. bigpicturescience.org/episodes/dis...
