tl,dr; Scientists no longer allowed to use federal funding to publish, attend meetings, or talk to the public. They cannot collaborate internationally. Grants can be cancelled for any reason, at any time, political appointees have a final say over what gets funded, and who gets funded.

Oh what a surprise 🤬

The Trump administration is evicting hundreds of bison from federal grasslands in Montana, siding with ranchers and Republican leaders over environmentalists and tribal leaders.

Hope you can join us for what I’m sure will be an interesting & useful discussion!

Really interesting summary of @scholarlypub.bsky.social's latest pulse survey on #advocacy in today's @scholarlykitchen.bsky.social -- engaging collectively w/ policymakers is a clear priority to #DefendResearch scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2026/05/01/s...

Delighted to say that @epentz.bsky.social of @crossref.bsky.social will also be joining this webinar 🎉

Who‘s going to a @maydaystrike.bsky.social rally today? I’ll be at the Boston one - its a perfect spring day so hopefully there’ll be a great turnout!

I'm really looking forward to this webinar -- healthy #metadata is a topic that's very close to my nerdy heart 😍

Words fail. To my knowledge, an all-out purge like this is unprecedented in the 76-year history of the US National Science Board. Unclear what this means for the National Science Foundation and its purview (which includes the National Center for Atmospheric Research), but I'm feeling queasy.

V happy to be working on the Publication Facts Label w/ John Willinsky @pkp.sfu.ca - grateful to @doaj.bsky.social for this opportunity to spread the word & hoping the label will be adopted as an industry #standard in future

Such an honor to be the closing keynote speaker- many thanks to @digital-science.com for the invitation 😊

I’m excited to lead this @nisoinfo.bsky.social training series - collaboration is more important than ever! I look forward to meeting the attendees, sharing my experiences & hearing from guest lecturers Chris Shillum @orcid.org & Maurice York @bigtenacademic.bsky.social

TS Eliot was right April IS the cruelest month - it’s snowing here in Boston!!! 😱😭🥶

Trump's despicable proposed 2027 #budget puts $1.5T towards wars and decimates areas serving critical domestic needs, including our knowledge, research, and education infrastructure. I made my calls and hope others will too! Sharing my script if that helps! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Hugely grateful to @emeraldpublishing.bsky.social for supporting our work to #DefendResearch against US govt censorship - highlighted in their new responsible publishing report along with many other great initiatives 👏👏👏 www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/responsible-...

Great post @rharington1.bsky.social & as you say an excellent companion piece to @juniper9.bsky.social & Ben Kaube’s recent piece on why scholarly societies are different. More reasons to be cheerful than gloomy IMO 😊

A new paper suggests that grant terminations from the NIH over the past year may have further punctured the so-called "leaky pipeline" because women were more impacted by grant terminations than men www.statnews.com/2026/03/23/n...

I need cis people to watch this. And then watch it again. I am a trans man with a beard just like this gentleman. If I leave my state, I have to think about this too. Heck, even if i dont leave the state. There are people anywhere who want to attack me for peeing.

Nature Index: Institution ranking

According to Academic Freedom Index, an annual benchmarking report compiled by researchers at Germany’s University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, the decline in university autonomy in the US has been faster than in places such as Hungary, India and Turkey. 😮😡 www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty...

Terrifyingly believable

Disgraceful. History will not judge them kindly...

This should be a great discussion, I'm looking forward to moderating these three excellent speakers!

If only everyone in the democrat party had prepared as well as the AGs for Trump 2.0… Apparently they started meeting in early 24, went through Project 25, formed groups focusing on different issues & more. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

“Even if the argument over the total number of dead is, for now, largely settled, disagreement in Israel continues over who the dead were…. None of this alters the stark figures in the table. Of the recorded deaths, 20,876, about 30 percent, are young girls, teenage girls and women.”
