I talked to NIH officials, current and former, about what's been happening inside the agency since the Trump administration shut down their grantmaking pipeline in January. Their stories showed just how willing our new leaders are to break the law: www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Quote from the article: "You know it’s serious when scientists are on the picket line." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

It’s vital that presidents publicly defend their institutions & “be brave right now,” Todd Wolfson, president of the AAUP said. Presidents need to recognize what the administration is trying to do by attacking higher ed: They want total control. open-campus-dispatch.beehiiv.com/p/how-univer...

New post! Frequently Asked Questions about US Government Funding for R&D. Short answers in the thread, longer answers at the link in the replies.

An excellent set of suggestions to help science by reconnecting with your local community.

This is amazing 😍😍 @500womensci.bsky.social has made cards for each state on funding for NSF and NIH avail for download bit.ly/NSF_bystate & bit.ly/NIH_bystate if they are helpful for folks

Sad to see a presidential library close in the week we celebrate President's day.

CRA statement on the cuts at NSF: "These cuts are the very definition of being pennywise and pound foolish — a shortsighted move that will undermine American innovation and technological leadership .." cra.org/cuts-to-nsf-...

Another sad day for science.

This absolutely will make flying less safe. Maybe not today. But inevitably. Conceivably *this* will finally get public attention? About the danger of just blowing up structures built with care over decades? Maybe some GOP Sen/Rep will think: "I'd rather not be on the wrong side of this one"?

Once again, maybe the presidents of major R1 research universities think existential threats to their business models & institutions might be worth loudly & collectively speaking out against in front of microphones 🤷‍♂️ bsky.app/profile/mcop...
