The Trump administration, seemingly determined to hobble the NIH, continues to devise new and insidious ways to politicize what has long been considered the crown jewel of US research. My latest for @opinion.bloomberg.com (🎁 link):

Politicizing Scientific Research Comes With a Hefty Price
More oversight at the National Institutes of Health is slowing down innovation that could meaningfully improve people’s lives.

Making ends meet on an intern’s salary can be hard. Stipends don’t always cover the full costs of temporarily relocating to a new city or making ends meet while working remotely. Sometimes, prioritizing steps to advance your career can mean putting off other income opportunities that would otherwise serve more immediate financial needs.
