the shift from “I never thought leopards would eat MY face” to “eat my face harder leopard daddy” must be studied

I'm the first person in my family to attend college. If it wasn't for these programs, I wouldn't have been able to complete my degree, let alone pursue a research career. They were key in enabling me to spend time in the lab rather than at a full-time job.

At a time when few institutional forces are standing up to protect science, @plos.org is doing it right. I'm honored to be associated with PLoS Digital Health..

🧪 The NSF director is lying to you. Let’s fact check 7 claims from yesterday’s letter to the community, while pointing out 3 critical omissions. 🧵

I'm struggling to articulate how worrisome this is, and I'm failing to come up with anything coherent...

So- according to this thread PubMed is inaccessible when you have your VPN ON. This is very concerning!!! — I have a really bad feeling they'll use data requests to weaponize against & harm the medical community. #MedSky cc @ltgovstratton.illinois.gov @saraforwi.bsky.social @jbpritzker.bsky.social

Apalling and heartbreaking. Major blows to American science.

How can we fight this?

Freeland: Our retaliation is going to be a lot more surgical than that. We are going to go after American stakeholders who matter to The White House. I have proposed a 100% tariff on all Teslas. I am calling on all the countries that are affected by this tariff to join us

Budgeting for the next year of my grants and they will all need to be rescoped, even before the 15% IDC rate. NCI funding at 83% for new awards and another 10% reduction for renewals (current state). Essentially, we are getting 50% of what we asked for...how is this sustainable? @carlbergstrom.com
