A systematic meta-analysis is hard work—and curation is often the hardest part. Y'all know this better than anyone, and we want to make it easier. What’s one specific piece of information you consistently had to find or extract from every paper? Tell us about it: tally.so/r/QKVbQG #neuroscience

Belated day 4 update: we made it to Florida and were greeted with three days of thunderstorms (more thunder than we heard the whole time we were in LA). We are both readjusting to life with humidity (pray for us).

To put these top-line budget numbers in context, cuts of this magnitude would effectively mean no new grants in FY2026. The entire extramural budget would go to existing, continuing grants. An abject failure of American ambition. And a betrayal of our global leadership in health science innovation.

They blame pollution but cut the EPA and clean air and water regulations. They blame poor nutrition but cut SNAP and programs to bring local produce to schools. They blame increased screen time while destroying public infrastructure that connects people. All while they take millions off healthcare.
