I really do know the most amazing people. First hand account of the protests in LA written by my friend (we were AP chemistry lab partners).

The President's Budget request as released yesterday will gut scientific research. Why should you care? 1) Science is fundamentally a jobs program. Many 100,000s are employed to do science and work for you, the US taxpayer.

The details of the NSF FY26 budget request were released yesterday. Remember this is the request, and congress makes the appropriation, so if you disagree contact your Senators and representative.

THIS. The people I work with at NSF believe so much in the mission of NSF that even when the government decides they are no longer needed, they continue to fight to preserve our mission. Today is the 75th anniversary of NSF. Please watch this video.

One of my least favorite things about social media is the way it encourages flat-out meanness, even for people who are not mean by nature. People lose all sense of proportional response. It's war, all the time. To be constantly dehumanizing one other can't be healthy.

It is with deep sadness that I share the passing of my Ph.D. advisor, Jenni Evans. She was an esteemed scientific leader in tropical meteorology & computational science. She shared great strength & inspiration to follow my dreams.
