During my recent Europe trip, I kept getting asked why we are not in the streets every day protesting. Here is your chance, San Diego. Join us today at noon. I will give brief remarks. See you at UCSD. actionnetwork.org/events/stand...

The National Science Foundation is awarding new grants at the slowest pace in at least 35 years. The funding decreases touch virtually every area of science — extending far beyond the diversity programs that the Trump administration says it wants to cut.

So let me get this straight. Hundreds or maybe thousands of international Jewish students are being kicked out of Harvard to protect the Jewish community from Harvard’s antisemitic policies? My heart goes out to all the students affected. Even the uncertainty alone is brutal.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Congratulations Gabe!! Awesome award & very well deserved!! 💪🏼🥳

OH " I said that I would only leave my job in one of threeways: 1) I get fired, a very real possibility; 2) I’m on a collision course with burnout, because I’mnot helpful to anyone if I burn out; 3) I feel that I’m crossing personal moral lines. It turned out to be #3 "

This is incredibly cool: if you search for a condition that’s affected your family, the site returns stats on how much NIH has done for that disease, *and* a contact form for reaching out to tell your Members of Congress why you want to see them defend NIH. Pass it on!

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Published an op-ed for @cnn.com: “Nobel laureate: I owe America my success. Today, its scientific future is in danger.” A personal reflection on what’s at stake as science funding gets slashed. I’d be grateful if you could amplify both in and beyond the science world. www.cnn.com/2025/04/09/h...

This is a great message tool. Make it go viral.

This really gets at so many problems right now

Are you living with long COVID? We are recruiting for a study which aims to understand the mechanisms underlying breathing difficulties in long COVID. Read about it here: longcovid.blogs.bristol.ac.uk Or here: www.bristolbrc.nihr.ac.uk/research/res... @bristolbrc.bsky.social @uobppn.bsky.social

This doesn't look good, folks www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Finally some coverage of NIH grant cancelations that asks lawyers, on the record, "isn't this illegal?" (the answer is "yes") www.bostonglobe.com/2025/03/26/m...

Hiring soon! I am looking for a preclinical imaging physicist with MRI experience. We will be investigating gas exchange in the mammalian brain, with a particular focus on oxygen. Using a gas contrast agent to ask fundamental questions about gas exchange and cerebral perfusion #hiring #neuroscience

There are strong connections among cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, type 2 diabetes and obesity, defined as cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome. For the first time, the AHA defines this condition and outlines screening and treatment.

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

… AND his son won a Nobel Prize. THANK YOU to you and your dad for all your contributions to our country & the world 💪🏼❤️💙🧡🇺🇸

Phenomenal Jill & team 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

If you don’t get your child vaccinated against measles, it can put them at a high risk of this serious infection, which can lead to severe complications or even death. Make sure your child’s measles vaccination is up to date.

This is a super interesting study!! Contact us for more info!

"When you hear about patients surviving stage 4 cancer because of immunotherapy, that was based on NIH research over many decades. When you hear about sickle cell disease being cured because of CRISPR gene editing, that was built on years of research supported by NIH" apnews.com/article/nih-...

THANK YOU Mayor Wu for your strength and leadership. Your actions have inspired many at a time when inspiration is hard to find. 💪🏼💪🏼 @mayorwu.boston.gov Proud to live in Greater Boston today ❤️

Grateful for YOU and the whole family 🥹❤️ what an amazing team. You are all destined for great things 💪🏼 💯 Love the mini physiologist joining in the back 🥰

Thanks Austin and people of Indiana!! 👏🏼👏🏼❤️

This is excellent.

Our "Let's Talk About Sexx and Heat" #SymposiumSet continues with this article from Giersch and @ncharkoudian.bsky.social (USARIEM), which discusses the mechanisms of body temperature and blood pressure regulation in women and the implications for heat illness risk! 📜https://buff.ly/41j8hF0

1/ The medical community is fighting back! In the Doctors for America lawsuit in DC, a judge has just ordered that at least for now, HHS, CDC, & FDA must restore public health webpages taken down. by midnight tonight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Here’s some of the things we did at @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social today.

Trainees who applied for an NIH diversity fellowship whose applications were withdrawn/not being reviewed, there's a NYTimes reporter who wants to talk, especially interested in applicants with disabilities. DM me & I'll put you in touch, will keep all contact confidential. Please amplify

If your work is basic science, it is also great to talk about how important curiosity driven research is. Studying lizard spit led to Ozempic is a great contemporary example. 🧪

@olaitano.bsky.social and everyone else I know in these states 🙏🏼!!

Join us on February 20th for our next coffee chat. We’ll be chatting with @gabegiersch.bsky.social and Brandon Roberts about working in a DOD lab. Registration link via QR code.

Our February 2025 issue is now available! Featuring content on: Female thermal sensitivity and behaviour ♀️🌡️ AI-driven blood pressure profiles clustering 💻🩸 Aerobic capacity and muscle proteomes 🫁💨 And more! Read the full issue here: 📖 https://buff.ly/4jH2ctd 📸Rebekah Lucas

This is disgraceful. Though it may not have stopped the crash, Trump is distracting us from the fact that he did not appoint a new FAA Administrator until today. The former FAA Administrator was pressured to step down when Trump took office because Musk didn't want him to keep going after SpaceX.

🌡️CALL FOR PAPERS🌡️ Take a look at this #CallforPapers for our "Thermal physiology in health and disease: mechanisms and therapeutic applications" #SpecialIssue! This #SpecialIssue will focus on the role of thermal physiology in health and disease. 🔗https://buff.ly/405sMF2

In recent years, we and others have used various approaches to demonstrate that young healthy women are not more susceptible to heat illness - an assumption that is still made and can affect women’s careers. One example from our lab: @gabegiersch.bsky.social pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36342147/

Excited to get this highlight! @apspublications.bsky.social

So proud of the Thermal & Mountain Medicine team!! Amazing productive year from a group of hardworking scientists - who are also super fun people 🥰💪🏼👏🏼👏🏼

🚨We have an open rank Tenure-Track position (Movement Science) in Kinesiology at Indiana University Bloomington. We are particularly interested in bringing in a talented biomechanist! Very competitive salary and great research support! jobs.chronicle.com/job/37750653...
