Major update to #SCIMaP visualization of impacts of cuts to federally supported health research. Map now includes information on future economic losses (impact of proposed reduction of NIH IDC to 15%) and current economic losses (impact of terminated NIH grants). scienceimpacts.org

American scientific enterprise, modern world order and democracy may be in peril but our @biophysj.bsky.social paper is coming out, so we felt compelled to share before everything implodes. A small step for #AI, a huge leap for #mechanobiology: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Incredibly spot-on. 😆

Good cover @economist.com

Tiny indeed but we'll take it.

About that "gold standard science" we've been promised ...

The comment period for this ends in 3 DAYS. Please leave a comment telling them EVERYONE should be able to get covid boosters. www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

On top of all grant cancellations, there is this. We should probably remind folks that while the presidents may be immune per SCOTUS, pretty much everyone else can be prosecuted for this clearly illegal move.

Everyone 6 months and older is eligible to get a flu vaccine. It makes no sense to restrict Covid vaccines to only people who have specific medical conditions. The FDA is basing its decisions on politics, not science.

Interview with @baym.lol lays out eloquently: how his work serves the public and how devastating weaponizing federal grants is. Couldn't have said it any better. Everyone should listen.

I am thinking a lot today about how heavy things feel in my world of faculty doing scientific research. There's the immediate chaos and panic about our ability to pay people and continue our research. But there's also a deeper grief at watching everything get bulldozed for no reason

Unbelievable, indeed. Thanks to Congresswoman @delauro.house.gov.

One needs to remind her that she is free to have relationships with any and all farmers, and to pet any and all cows, or do both at the same time. Just don't try to feed raw milk to children.

We are continuing to look into grant terminations at the NIH, and we want to hear from you. Please reach out to us with your experiences: www.propublica.org/getinvolved/...

Read up on how things are rotting from the core, while we still have free journalists. I was naively thinking that the ship was sinking as in ancient Rome, but this is more from the soviet story line...

Conspiracy of Silence: How Trump is Covertly Strangling Billions in Disease Cure Research talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/consp...

So the $55B question is: did the American scientific enterprise die already?

🚨HEY DORKS, WE NEED YOUR HELP🚨 We preparing for a BIG fight against Trump's attack on science and we won't stop until we win! We are grassroots and run on donations. Whether it's $5 or $500, every little bit counts in the fight to save science. #standupforscience actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

🚨Report your NSF grant terminations! 🚨 We are starting to collect information on NSF grant terminations to create a shared resource as we have for NIH. The more information we collect, the more we can organize, advocate, and fight back! Please share widely! airtable.com/appGKlSVeXni...

By @katherinejwu.com "The NIH... supported 99 percent of the drugs approved in the U.S. from 2010 to 2019. The agency has had a hand in “nearly all of our major medical breakthroughs over the past several decades,” The NIH is in a struggle for its (and our) lives. This is existential to America:

ATTENTION The Washington Post is collecting data about funding issues. Please consider contributing. thewashingtonpost.formstack.com/forms/scient...

For those of you who may be unaware: NIH, the biggest funder of biomedical research on the planet, has not made any new funding decisions since January 21 because it needs to hold meetings that are declared on the Federal Register. No meetings = no funding.

It's too bad we don't have any funds to check his heart or bones. When they are through with it, there won't be a single brick left on the U.S. science enterprise.

They do not understand how all of this will affect their lives. When all this is done, I suspect some medical schools to either close or decrease the size of their program. How is that good for the country? If you think finding a PCP is hard now, wait till that happens.

Public service announcement.

Hello world. Couldn't have thought of a better day to start dreaming of bluer skies.
