Remember when you first learned about genetics at school? All those fascinating examples of human traits that are each apparently determined by just a single gene? Time to check in on some of your favourites to see how they’re doing. 🧬🧵🧪 1/n

ACTION ITEM-----ACTION ITEM Implementation of Schedule F This is what a lot of us have been worried about. This allows for many civil service positions to replaced with political appointees. This could include NIH institute directors and even POs. BUT THERE IS A COMMENT PERIOD... 1/n

[Report for 🧪 feed] A trusted editor has asked if I can identify a lab or PI or research team who have lost funding/shut down a project, whose loss will help narrativize the current moment for an everyday reader. Is this you? Or someone you know? Would love to hear recs or be in contact.

Friends, I am at a loss of words for how devastating it would be to lose the entire intramural #NIH program. Some of the biggest medical and scientific breakthroughs have come from scientists in the NIH Intramural program. #SaveTheNIH 🧬🧪 🖥️ 🧠 www.science.org/content/arti...

The White House has ground NIH operations to a halt. E.g., the NHLBI’s CCHS study section, which evaluates large patient-oriented cardiovascular research proposals, was cancelled at the last minute this week. This is bad for science, scientists, patients/the public, and the economy.
