Just in time for #StandUpForScience2025, I spoke with @jackjlee.bsky.social at the @sfchronicle.com about the impacts of cutting federal funding of science and biomedical research: “We’re...wondering why something that has benefited from bipartisan support for 70 years is now currently a target.”

BTW, if you work in the weather/climate/disaster/emergency management space and are/were a federal employee who has been fired in recent hours/days, there are multiple journalists interested in speaking to you (and will be watching replies on this thread).
