⛔️ Big NIH update: We just learned of 726 more NIH grants that were terminated sometime over the past 2 months. A huge number of diversity supps, diversity F31s, and diversity training grants. See below ⤵️ View them here: grant-watch.us/nih-data.html h/t to @noamross.net for processing them.

Classes are ending, but SCIENCE is still under ATTACK! Join us and #StandUpForScience to let our representatives and leaders know that we will not let the pipeline for STEM education and discovery be dismantled! All members of the community are welcome! #SummerFightForScience

Amid DEI funding cuts, trainees are losing pillars of support. Grassroots mentorship organizations are stepping in to continue championing young researchers. @blackinneuro.bsky.social @colorsofthebrain.bsky.social @neurolatine.bsky.social By Paige Miranda www.thetransmitter.org/qa/we-still-...

I think the plot has been lost a little on what DEI is and how it’s implemented. I wrote a piece about why DEI matters and how it actually allows meritocracy to thrive. neuwritesd.org/2025/02/20/m...

I found my amazing undergrad mentor through @colorsofthebrain.bsky.social , and benefited from being a mentee from @cientificolatino.com ‘s GSMI program . shoutout to @simonsfoundation.org .

"Academics from poorer backgrounds are both more likely to not publish and to have outstanding publication records. Academics from poorer backgrounds introduce more novel scientific concepts, but are less likely to receive recognition" 👀

Federal investments have ripple effects. Funded graduate students started @colorsofthebrain.bsky.social, an undergraduate research program where ~70% of students joined postbacc, graduate schools, technician, or lab manager roles after graduation. Over half had no prior science research experience!
