Well - if it isn't just as I predicted/encouraged as soon as Trump came into power! ❤️ Delighted to see leading European nations so relatively bold and quick off the mark. The UK is really lagging on this open goal. Canada also have a massive opportunity too, given their new Horizon affiliation.

Universities matter at least as much as much as steel. Invest in minds as well as materials. This it’s a sector we really can lead in globally, especially given the US car crash. But it means welcoming international students and removing bizarrely punitive visas

This article from Marina Hyde pretty much matches my feelings about the blue origin flight. It feels like the message behind the flight was actually Jeff Bezos and his cronies saying "Look, we've made space flight so easy even women can do it!" www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is ridiculous. NSF is pausing *all* outgoing grants awarded this cycle and subjecting them to a “secondary review” by DOGE. Gumming up the funding pipeline like this threatens the job security of nearly a million graduate students and post docs, to say nothing of the science…

The Trump administration has clawed back $30 million of funding from the University of Hawaiʻi, targeting research related to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility, sustainability, renewable energy, climate change, and minority health disparities. It will get worse.
