Boston police officers chased a care after being told to stop. Minutes later, three teens died in a crash. Read the John R. Ellement and Sean Cotter report on a tragedy that could have been avoided. Video by Randy Vazquez. Map by me. @bostonglobe.com www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/08/m...

I’m misty-eyed with nostalgic reverie. Last night I bleached my groceries for old time’s sake.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research. I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.
