This will only matter if you go to your institutions and organizations and tell them "get in the game"

🚨 HEADS UP: If you haven't submitted a comment on the OMB proposal yet, there's still time - but it's running out! There are only 11 days left to push back against Russell Vought's attempt to give political appointees unprecedented control over federal research funding. Take Action: zurl.co/R83IO

I have the radical idea that we SHOULD pick a side in injustice, because failure to choose a side means siding with the oppressor. When I look back, I want to be proud that I didn't waiver in my commitment to my neighbors and my country. If that means some joker calls me partisan, FINE. 7/?

Every voice matters! @faseborg.bsky.social has made it EASY to share your personal insights on OMB's proposed rule. Check out their free tool and take action before July 13th!

Four years ago today, Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court, putting lives in danger and undoing generations of hard-fought progress. Women should be able to make their own health care decisions, and we have to keep fighting until all Americans have that right again.

Big civic engagement day! I voted in our local primary elections, and watched a video webinar organized by @standupforscience.net about fighting back against the administration's full-scale attack on US scientific research.

1/ 🧵 OMB is advancing a proposed rule that would destroy the American scientific enterprise. Randos keep disagreeing with my 'here's how to fight it' I do this for a living. So before the "how," here's the "who" --- and why you should listen to me on this one.

What does the new OMB proposal mean for science? How can we STOP VOUGHT and SAVE SCIENCE together? All of these questions and more to be discussed at the Emergency Science Meeting on June 2nd, 4PM ET, hosted by Stand Up for Science! Register at the link in our bio, or go here: zurl.co/g3vTZ

🚨UPDATE: We will launch our action center on this issue tomorrow. 📣JOIN US: Emergency Science Meeting (Virtual) June 2nd at 4pm et. Details to come. Our Policy Team has read through the entire 400 page hot mess express from Russ Vought...here are the high level details. A Thread🧵 1/x

Several people have asked for possible content and structure for comments regarding the proposed OMB regulations. With some suggestions from others, I have posted on example (as a Word document) for downloading). jeremymberg.github.io/jeremyberg.g... I hope this is helpful.

The full proposal is now available: public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-10817.pdf Some comments / highlights here: bsky.app/profile/kgan... TL:DR - It's exactly as expected. And that's not good, in case that wasn't clear.

This is what courage looks like.

We're super excited to share MissAlignment: a new ML-based approach to reference-free tilt series alignment, spearheaded by @martenchaillet.bsky.social. We think it's going to make your cryo-ET life a lot better. Preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Code: github.com/warpem/miss-... 🧶 Thread:

My lab is recruiting for a highly independent and talented postdoctoral fellow to work on answering fundamental biological questions. Reach out if you have questions! careers.gene.com/us/en/job/20...

The culmination of a fantastic collaboration between our lab and Bob Yauch’s lab that resulted in the uncovering of a proteosomal regulatory mechanism for PP2A. Congratulations to all the authors! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The more that folks outside of science hear of this, the more they should ask: why? open.substack.com/pub/joshuasw...

This interview is a uniquely valuable perspective. Please watch.

I am reviewing a simply amazing paper from a relatively young US-based lab, which is in danger of shutting its doors later this year. My emotions are all over the place. The fact that this does not uniquely identify the lab I’m referring to just deepens the tragedy of this moment in US science.

Pls re-post: My department @oxfordbiochemistry.bsky.social are recruiting for several new faculty positions (links below). Broad search in molecular biology/biochemistry, across prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Interested in understanding life at the molecular level, this job might be for you! 1/n

A new Review discusses how degrons of different types, with an emphasis on high-order structural ones, regulate substrate-E3 interactions and how their dysregulation is linked to human diseases www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It seems that only the science community is noticing that NIH and NSF budgets are cut 40% and 55% in the budget bill, respectively. If you live in Maine, West Va, Pennsylvania, Alabama, or Louisiana, CALL YOUR SENATOR as they could make a difference. See below. prospect.org/politics/202...

ATTENTION: NSF GRANT RECIPIENTS We received a heads up from a trusted source that you should proactively download/print/screen shot any documentation on research.gov pertaining to your NSF awards, both those that are current and any that have closed in the last 5-6 years. 1/n

Everyone please read and act! 👇

This is such an incredible explainer of Indirect Funding! 💡 Some takeaways: 🧬 The federal science funding landscape in America was created after the US economy, security, and health by partnering with universities that would conduct research for the government. 🧵

The House Science Committee is now adopting its rules, authorization, and oversight plan, and introducing their new staffers. Immediately following, there will be a hearing on the future of U.S. science with the president of AAAS and two former Trump officials in academia and Trump operative.

Thrilled to announce Boltz-1, the first open-source and commercially available model to achieve AlphaFold3-level accuracy on biomolecular structure prediction! An exciting collaboration with Jeremy, Saro, and an amazing team at MIT and Genesis Therapeutics. A thread!

So many people added to pack 1 this weekend we had to make pack 2. Makes sure you refresh for followers on pack one to see them all! 🧶🧬 go.bsky.app/DDetSBp

US should be leading this charge. We are not. How sad is that?
