I’ve gotten so used to people acting like I’m crazy for speaking out that I’ve been quieter only to retain my own personal sanity. But I’m so glad to hear a judge saying the same: cutting MOSAIC and other grants IS the discrimination.

As a part of the @standupforscience.bsky.social Summer Fight for Science campaign, we want to host 1000 teach ins across the US between now and Sept 30th. Yeah, it’s a big, hairy, audacious goal. I know. Here is a running list of ideas, please scoop and do! 🧵🪡

HAPPY TAX DAY! How much would you spend on a year of tornado warnings? The average US taxpayer spends only $4 a year to help fund the NWS. It’s a smart investment—every $1 invested in NWS yields approx. $73 in social benefits. 🌪️❄️ Support science. Support the NWS. Stay tuned for more this #TaxDay

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

I've already had two federal grants terminated and face a 33% pay cut due to future terminations. It's painful, but not as painful as the conversations I'm having every day with brilliant trainees in graduate school and postdoctoral positions who see little future for themselves in US science.

Excited to share a new preprint that discovered how skin fibroblasts are active participants in acute & long-term pain states & not just bystanders. We know this research, partly funded by the NIH will drive the development of new pain drugs. @elsanchez09.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Kudos to @asm.org I have never in my nearly 25yrs as a member been sent an "ASM Action Alert" asking me to contact my members of Congress. Make those calls. Write those emails. There are extraordinary times and we must make ourselves heard

I am officially on sabbatical though March 2025. No teaching or university service. Looking forward to the time to rest and focus just on my scholarship. I am currently working on identifying clinically relevant anti-metabolism drugs that can be repurposed as antivirals. #professorlife
