I am excited (as usual) about attending #Worm25. But I am also sad that so many friends and colleagues can't be there. Because you know....insane policies and war and such. Hoping the science will provide at least a temporary distraction from the unending chaos.

What would it take for us to step back from the brink of losing a functional democracy? One step is court orders. Today, a small piece of good news for NIH. Another step is large-scale protest. Today I describe how these two components fit together: samwang.substack.com/p/for-us-sci...

For U.S. science, a small step back from the brink

For decades, NIH funding has fueled breakthroughs in cancer, heart disease and more. But a new policy puts progress at risk. We need Congress to oppose this abrupt change. Join me in emailing lawmakers today! #SaveNIHresearch bit.ly/4hxmfsK

It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.

Moments before the lunar occultation of Mars

A square photograph of the full moon, as seen at 21:07 from Columbus, Ohio. The moon takes up most of the frame, but at about 7 o'clock, just under the moon, there is a small red dot that is the planet Mars, about to be eclipsed by the moon.
