We talk a lot about why adolescent girls report more low mood and anxiety, and why this might be getting worse. But what do girls themselves think might explain this? As you might have guessed, we don’t really know. So, we asked them: doi.org/10.1186/s129... 1/8

I’m an NSF panel reviewer that was scheduled to meet today. Just got notice that all NSF panels were canceled today. I reviewed some innovative proposals in support of students. Devastating if these scholars don’t get to do this work. For the love of science & students I hope this is just a delay.💔

Many patients with stage 4 cancers, like myself, rely on clinical trials as our last hope for survival when our first, second, and third line treatments fail--and these treatments will eventially fail--these clinical trials are what we have left to try to survive.

During my maternity “leave” last sem, I helped write 3 trainee fellowship applications to NIH & NSF. Probably ~50 hrs of my time, certainly hundreds of theirs. All have reviews occurring in ~month. In some cases it affects their ability to stay in my lab. This grant review shutdown is devastating.

Scientific advancements aside, this is economically irresponsible Every $1 spent by NIH generates $2.46 For example, in 2023, $47B in NIH spending generated ~$93B Halting NIH spending will LOSE the US a lot of money (and talent)

An image of NIH campus. Text says : With annual budget of more than $47 billion, NIH is the largest single public funder of biomedical and behavioural research in the world. In fiscal year 2023, NIH funding generated an estimated $92.89 billion in economic activity

Every state and almost every congressional district received a share of NIH investment
Each year, NIH awards over 60,000 grants that directly support more than 300,000 researchers at more than 2,500 different institutions
In fiscal year 2023, every $1 of NIH funding generated approximately $2.46 of economic activity
