Agencies within the Trump administration have flagged hundreds of words to limit or avoid, according to a compilation of government documents. These terms appeared in government memos, in official and unofficial agency guidance and in other documents. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
A card reads: "These Words Are Disappearing in the New Trump Administration." A long list of words follows, including: biologically female; biologically male; BIPOC; Black; breastfeed + people; clean energy; climate crisis; climate science; commercial sex worker; community diversity; community equity; confirmation bias; cultural competence; cultural differences; cultural heritage; cultural sensitivity; culturally appropriate; culturally responsive; DEI; equity; feminism; genders.

📢 New study on causes of maternal death: Severe bleeding (haemorrhage) and hypertensive disorders like preeclampsia are the leading causes of maternal deaths, together claiming around 130,000 lives worldwide in 2020. bit.ly/43AzEvM
Many women lack access to essential sexual & reproductive health services that prevent maternal deaths.

LEADING DIRECT CAUSES ARE:
Haemorrhage
(Severe heavy bleeding)
27%

Hypertensive disorders including preeclampsia
16%

Other direct causes including birth injuries and anaesthetic complications
10%

Spontaneous and induced abortion
including complications from miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, unsafe abortions
8%

Sepsis/infections
7%

Pulmonary embolism
7%

Underlying health issues like anaemia, HIV/ AIDS, diabetes and malaria are major contributors to many maternal deaths.

Word clouds summarizing answers to survey questions. (A) Question 1: In your area of work, what is the most common interpretation of the term ‘mechanism’ as applied to research questions? The most common word is 'Gene', followed by 'Process', 'Molecular' and 'Cell'. (B) Question 2: When you assess work in your field, what do you look for in terms of a mechanistic understanding of development? The most common word is 'Cell', followed by 'Look', 'Level', 'Process' and 'Gene'.

Society for Developmental Biology @socdevbio.bsky.social · 29/01/2025
The Society for Developmental Biology has released a statement on the Unprecedented Disruptions to Biomedical Research in the United States.
Scientific research is a driving force behind human progress. It fuels medical breakthroughs, spurs technological innovations and drives economic growth. Federal funding of research by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) is absolutely critical for ensuring that the U.S. maintains its global leadership in science and technology.
The unprecedented freeze on the review and issuance of federal research grants is already negatively impacting research and could have significant ripple effects. Ongoing studies may lose momentum if grant renewals or supplement requests are delayed, slowing scientific progress on research the NIH has already invested in. Researchers affiliated with the Society for Developmental Biology carry out critical research on birth defects, which kill twice as many children as cancer does. Slowed progress will delay the development of new therapies and diagnostics, and thus have real public health implications. In 2019, the total estimated cost of birth defect–associated hospitalizations was $22.2 billion.
Scientific research is also critical to the U.S. economy more broadly. In 2023 alone NIH funded research not only directly supported 412 thousand jobs, but its overall economic impact rippled out to all sectors of the economy driving more than $92.89 billion in economic activity across all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. It is estimated that every dollar of NIH funding generates $2.46 dollars of economic activity.
Finally, federal research funding not only drives impactful research discoveries but also supports the training of the scientists, engineers, and innovators of the future. University laboratories, funded by federal grants, serve as essential training grounds for the next generation of researchers even as they push the boundaries of knowledge. This training prepares young scientists for leadership roles in both academia and industry, helping to ensure that the scientific workforce r…
