Governor Stein Announces Standing Orders to Increase Access to COVID-19 Vaccines in NC "...adults over age 65 or with increased risk for severe COVID-19 can get the COVID-19 vaccine at a local pharmacy without having to visit a health care provider first." governor.nc.gov/news/press-r...

Happy #Caturday!

💯 agree

"What I would simply say is cancer can't wait." --Richard Schlueter, a 56-year-old metastatic cancer patient whose therapy was delayed due to terminations at NIH.

Look, there I am 😅

It's me.

Please join us for the Duke Summer Research Showcase! Our amazing Duke Amgen Scholars will be presenting their research. #duke #science #UndergraduateResearch #amgen

NASA is more than rockets and moonwalks. NASA is behind much of our everyday technology. From space discovery, to Air Jordans, to CAT scans, NASA has played a role. We get it all on less than a penny of every federal dollar. Now their science may be gutted by 50%. #NASADidThat

Keeping me company for an afternoon/evening of work.

This is a great idea! Not only for this moment, but every year. Engaging politicians and the public with science is more important than ever. Tax payers should see the amazing science that their dollars fund!

Great team to work with!

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

We need more stories like this showing the immediate human costs of Trump's deliberate destruction of the NIH wapo.st/44ntbo4

Signed! Please help us support our NIH colleagues #StandUpForScience

Seth gets it

Hello Fly Folks. quick note FlyBase is under duress due to termination NIH$ to Harvard and intl collabs. The hardworking folks @flybase.bsky.social are doing their darndest to ensure access to current data. For US, there will soon be a new site to donate. Please spread the word, ideas and support 🪰💪

Happy Pride!!

200+ scientists are in the middle of a marathon livestream to show why weather and climate science is so important and needs all our help to continue. It is here: wclivestream.com/watch

Some people are shocked when I say it will take decades to repair the damage this administration has dealt.

Exactly this.

Behind every cure, every breakthrough, every treatment — is someone who needed it. If NIH funding helped you, your research, or someone you love, your story can help protect it. Share your “why” and help defend the future of NIH & science. Fill out the form here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

This infuriates me. This administration is trying to kill us. I want an administration focused on combo vaccines for respiratory illnesses. I want an adminstration that cares about our health. And I want a choice to be vaccinated.

This should be front page news in every paper. Dr. Barber is a powerful civil rights leader who is reminding us of the actions Dr. King took before he was "sanitized" and made into an icon. 1/2 religionnews.com/2025/04/28/w...

Must watch! John Oliver does a great job summarizing the Trump administration's disastrous health policies. youtu.be/8H34jcpEsFs?...

This part. I think many people think private industry will fund this type of research and fill the gap. This won't happen and certainly not at the scale the NIH does.

I have never been so upset to pay my "taxes" this year. I want to pay for systems that help our citizens, not terrorize them.

Glad Harvard is fighting back. #resist

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

The power of on-screen representation 😻🐈‍⬛

I really don't think playing along or being silent will save science in the US.

Really looking forward to this workshop!

So happy to be back home in San Diego for #Dros25 for great science! Come see @drosopachea.bsky.social from our lab speaking in the Thurs 4:30-6pm session on Cell Division and Growth!

Excited for #Dros25! Please visit the Fox Lab attendees. Josh Silva: P249F, Talk in the Polyploidy Workshop Thursday evening Jane Blackmer: P242F Erin Dickert: P259S Satya Yalamanchi: P265S And a talk by me Saturday afternoon (168)

#Dros25 starts today! 🪰 Get ready for 5 days of dynamic science, engaging professional development events, & plenty of opportunities to network, form new collaborations, reconnect with old friends & colleagues, and form lasting bonds with members of the Fly community 🤝 🫶

The PCB Committee for Community Building packed lots of diapers at the diaper bank Friday! 10/10 recommend getting out in your community and volunteering. Especially during tumultuous times, it's great to do tangible things that help others.

NIH grants are a great investment in the economy and society! These cuts are short sighted and damaging.

Big thank you to the faculty that showed up. Our students need our support and voices!

Very much this.

Great crowd at the Stand Up For Science rally in Raleigh! 🧪 I had to cut the video short because my son wanted to use my phone to take pictures of the dogs in attendance (one had a sign that said "support labs" 😂). There were many more folks than I captured here. 👏🏼👏🏼 @standupforscience.bsky.social

I loved getting out to #StandUpForScience in Raleigh NC. Thank you so much to the organizers for putting this event together. And to everyone across the country that participated! @standupforscience.bsky.social

Ready for the Stand Up for Science Rally! Hope to see you there! #science

Come join us!

Sharing this brave piece that echos a lot of what I have been feeling. The silence around DEI from institutions means the damage is already done. Leadership asking us to keep our heads down to prevent actual damage ignore that it’s already here for people like me. stanforddaily.com/2025/03/03/f...
