Agree; this absolutely disrupts our ability to keep people healthy and safe

Viewpoint: The CMS-DHS data-sharing agreement for immigration enforcement undermines patient trust, violates ethical principles, and compromises the separation between healthcare and law enforcement. ja.ma/42h3MLh

Thanks @murray.senate.gov and the Appropriations committee for the bipartisan bill that rejects the draconian cuts to NIH science and restricts the harmful multiyear funding scheme! www.appropriations.senate.gov/news/minorit...

I sent a letter to Bhattacharya while listening to the mark-up. More to come from this interview... 1/4

Here are some of the highlights of the appropriations bill that the Senate appropriations committee just approved: $48.7 billion for NIH, an increase of $400 million Rejects the proposal to cap indirect cost rates at 15% Includes a provision to prevent MYF that would reduce the number of grants

Okay, serious whiplash. WaPo is reporting funds are back on. The Aug 15 pocket rescission date still stands. But hopefully we have a little more time. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

WSJ: www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Today #NIH leadership were told no funds can go out for research project grants, R&D contracts or training grants. We have just a couple weeks to get funds out the door before Russel Vought attempts a #PocketRescission on Aug 15. Even if this ends up being temporary, it’s time we don’t have.

New📄in @thelancet.com oncology: The US does not have a comprehensive national health insurance plan. Instead coverage is derived from a patchwork of various federal, state, & local policies. This system stymies access to care for ~11M #undocumentedImmigrants currently contributing to the US economy.

Multi-year funding will create “an insane standard that only a lucky few will hit.” Another attempt by Trump & Vought to tear down science. Because science runs counter to their mission to maintain power by controlling information. Don’t let them. Call your Senators and Representatives. Get loud!

If the Supreme Court allows #NIH to terminate ongoing grants because it changed its mind on priorities, it will be the end of NIH and the end of the US as a leader in biomedical science. Period. thehill.com/policy/healt...

If you’re in the DC area, come support the #BethesdaDeclaration signers at a rally outside Medical Center Metro. Some of the signers will meet with Jay Bhattacharya Monday afternoon and we want to be ready to cheer them on after! Please rsvp if you plan to come! actionnetwork.org/events/bethe...

Throwback to the early days of our #NIH vigils. Back then, I wore a veil to protect my identity. It is good to be unmasked! We are still showing up every Saturday at 10am. We will there every Saturday until NIH is back on track. @nihvigils.bsky.social m.youtube.com/watch?v=NfJ5...

They are looking for acts of discrimination… I plan to submit Judge Young’s comments from his recent @apha.org and @uaw.org ruling.

This is where our power lies.

Let that courage spread, let it grow!

In light of this morning’s Supreme Court ruling on nationwide injunctions, I must take back my 😔. I now realize Judge Young likely made this decision with some foresight about this potential ruling. And now I like him even more!

A lot of people ask me what it’s like working at #NIH the see days. This sums it up well: “… my employer had made violating the law and constitution a condition of my continued employment.” Thanks @antifaspecops.bsky.social for sharing this important information.

Flagging this from #NIH Director #JayLies Bhattacharya. He conveniently fails to link the article he references. Probably because it looks pretty awful when your policies risk cancer patients’ lives. www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

BREAKING: #NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya invited some #BethesdaDeclaration signers to a roundtable. I did not make the guest list. Do I take that as a compliment?

Can’t wait to see so many critical research projects pick back up! I’m looking forward to working again with many talented grantees who science and lives and labs were put on hold.

I’m so excited for the many important grants that will be reinstated based on Judge Young’s ruling. But I know many can’t simply pick up where they left off. The damage from these terminations can never be fully restored. We must hold the Trump Administration accountable.

I signed the #BethesdaDeclaration for my kids. I want a better future for them, and for all of the children in our country. Please, join me! act.standupforscience.net/forms/add-na...

Shout out again @jilliancaldwell.bsky.social - she's a PHENOM and an all-star research fellow This project wasn't easy: she stitched together multiple complex datasets and studied a very complex policy I don't know when she's going on the market, but folks need to pay attention to her

Thrilled to share a special moment w/my daughter Bella w/her research poster @nkf-professionals.bsky.social Huge thank you to Dr. Ladan Golestaneh for mentoring so many aspiring young scientists! 🧡 It was also inspiring to connect w/others who fuel passion for science! #NKFClinicals
