A Reagan-appointed judge ruled that the Administration’s attempt to cancel hundreds of NIH grants are “void and illegal.” We must continue to stand up to the attacks on health research and lifesaving clinical trials.

Thank you to the brave NIH staff who are speaking up apnews.com/article/nih-...

Presidential budget proposes a 70% reduction in NSF funding for 2026 compared to2024. Instead of funding 23% of proposals (2024) they will fund 7% (2026). A perfect recipe for the destruction of American science.

"Our calculations suggest that the proposed budgetary cuts to the NIH will create a social cost that is 16 times greater than the savings that the administration is attempting to achieve." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

BREAKING: The president's budget request just hit Congress, which could usher in a dark age for NASA space science. Congress has the final say, but you can help shape the outcome by adding your name to our global petition. This is just the start of our fight. Sign the petition: planet.ly/petition

“Harvard is prohibited from having any aliens on F- or J-nonimmigrant status” To be clear, this includes international postdocs as well as international students. (I was at Harvard on a J-1 visa for two years.) Thinking of all my fabulous colleagues over in Cambridge, Mass.

NEW: Under Trump, the National Science Foundation is awarding grants at the slowest pace in decades. We took a detailed look at every area of science affected by the funding lag. Here's a gift link: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Appeal from colleagues at Harvard: "...we also call upon our fellow institutions of higher education in the United States to declare their willingness to facilitate the immediate co-enrollment of Harvard’s international students., including formal acceptance of transfer for immigration purposes."

Today, NEJM published what may be a landmark moment: doctors used customized gene editing inside a living baby to treat a deadly genetic disease CPS1 deficiency. Is it time to prepare for a world where we don’t just treat genetic diseases, we rewrite their story? Will gene editing change the future?

Definitely consider if looking for postdoc in an awesome brain imaging lab --
