The President's Budget request as released yesterday will gut scientific research. Why should you care? 1) Science is fundamentally a jobs program. Many 100,000s are employed to do science and work for you, the US taxpayer.
NSF, NASA and NIH budgets per year, inflation adjusted from 2000-2025 along with the proposed cuts. NSF includes research component only. Massive cuts across all sectors, well below support spanning 25 years.

Protein quality control is a tug-of-war between degradation machinery and chaperones that promote folding. Thrilled to see our latest manuscript is now published! 👇 Follow 🧵 for quick summary journals.biologists.com/jcs/article-...
