Lovely tribute to Franklin Stahl, who with Matthew Meselson crafted “the most beautiful experiment in biology.” @denibechard.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/obituaries/2...

Franklin Stahl, biologist who helped reveal how DNA replicates, dies at 95
An early experiment, with colleague Matthew Meselson, helped set the stage for a revolution in genetics.

Amazing to watch the United States of America turn it back on vaccines.

Just to reiterate the unfathomably huge stakes here: bird flu has the potential to kill millions and millions. It has done so before. Vaccines are the best defense we have, and this administration just unilaterally decided, nope. 🧪

A huge step from HHS that is at odds with science showing significant risks for young children and pregnant women — and that directly contradicts *the FDA's own publication* from last week listing pregnancy as a high-risk condition that would qualify people for this fall's Covid vaccine
A tweet from HHS secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.:

Today, the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from @CDCgov recommended immunization schedule. Bottom line: it's common sense and it's good science. We are now one step closer to realizing @POTUS's promise to Make America Healthy Again.

"Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants. Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. Hispanic PIs and those with disabilities were twice as likely to lose a grant."

I remember this photo of David Souter, as he drove home after the Bush v. Gore ruling. It is as if he saw the future unfold. Rest in peace.

In 15 yrs of reporting, I've never had so many health & biomed researchers & outreach orgs tell me they're afraid to talk w/press or barred from speaking bc of new comms policies. I understand the fear of losing funds. I don't know if silence does more harm than good. If you can speak up, pls do.
