I received a surprising and disturbing request from NIH on Friday. They wrote to cancel a subaward to Hong Kong on one of my grants. (This was disturbing but not surprising.) They also ordered us not to interact with our collaborators in Hong Kong on any work under the award:

nancy cox was a true public health hero. a brilliant and dedicated civil servant who worked diligently for decades to protect the public's health. she saved a lot of lives, and did so in the background

Resistance of IgG–FcR interactions to shear stress can be engineered, establishing a separate parameter for optimizing antibody effector functions beyond affinity alone. www.cell.com/immunity/pdf... Congratulations to Dr. Bowie Cheng and the whole team 🎉.

Pediatricians contending with a sharp rise in vaccine hesitancy are trying to stay sensitive and supportive, even as they bear the brunt of parents’ mistrust and confusion. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/h...

Asthma is a chronic disease characterized by acute, intermittent, recurrent episodes of airway inflammation. A decade of work developing the tools, techniques and collaborations needed to figure out how CD4+ T cells in the lungs propagate disease can be found here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Congratulations to the great Kanta Subbarao—the unanimous choice of the awards committee to receive the Edward Jenner Award! Nobody is more deserving for her contributions to developing vaccines for bird flu & other emerging respiratory pathogens. #19vaccinecongress

Universities are not passive beneficiaries of government largesse. It is the federal government that depends on universities to conduct the research that keeps our nation healthy, safe and economically competitive.I discuss in the Washington Post. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

My op-ed in the Mercury News: A proposed HHS rule would delay vaccine updates and stall innovation by forcing unnecessary placebo trials. It’s bad science — and worse public health. @mercurynews.com www.mercurynews.com/2025/05/31/o...

Science is under attack. The NIH, the NSF, and our research universities. So today, I have a message for America's scientists: youtu.be/MeoZDPy5cIY?...

Excellent piece by @julieparsonnet.bsky.social on infectious diseases as root causes of a number of chronic human diseases; pausing research on bacterial and viral infections will limit efforts to cure neurodegeneration, autoimmune, metabolic disease as well as cancer substack.com/inbox/post/1...

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Let's talk about these two department store owners: brother and sister Louis Bamberger and Caroline Bamberger Fuld. From Newark, New Jersey. They are random people, basically. But in the late 1920s, with fascism taking over Europe, they made a choice that profoundly changed the world: 🧵

This is deeply flawed. One example- our understanding of antibody function in vivo is in very early stages. AI cannot predict outcomes without good foundational data. Basic research is essential to generate the knowledge base and every discovery still requires validation in diverse human cohorts.
