Is anyone able to help me make sense of the teeny tiny template IAPAC provides for e-posters? (13.33" x 7.5") What size screens are these posters presented on? Should I really be thinking computer-monitor-sized and not traditional-academic-poster sized?

The speed at which NIH is terminating in-progress HIV-related grants is truly horrifying. This is not a shift in future priorities—they are abruptly cutting off studies originally competitively funded because of their high scientific impact that are already underway. taggs.hhs.gov/Content/Data...

New report shows that NIH grants fueled $95 billion in economic activity and 407,782 jobs in 2024. That's not to mention the countless lives that biomedical research has saved. Show me a better investment than that. www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Wow is this bleak. It would be distressing enough were they revising guidelines on what could be funded going forward, but this effort to cancel or redirect ongoing science (into which resources have already been invested) is surreal. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Welp, I guess now we know why they haven’t been issuing any grants…

It's definitely super weird that basically no NIH grant renewals are being issued (based on NIH Reporter). 19 total grants (new or renewed) with NOAs in the 1st 7 days of Feb. this year, versus 850 in 2024 and 1196 in 2021 (last change of administration). Zero NOAs 2/3-2/7.

Anyone else anxiously awaiting what *should* be a non-competing renewal on an NIH grant 5 days into February? Let me continue to science please!

FYI, this is the updated instruction I received for an NIH review panel this month: "To align with new Administration guidance, effective immediately, reviewers must not evaluate, score, or factor into their final scoring, the Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP) in applications."
