RIP Susan Stamberg. Like public media which is at an inflection point www.npr.org/2025/10/16/1...

If we think that sharing Epsteins files would help, I am all for it. But congress has not shown any appetite to protect women and girls.

Epstein was horrific and should have languished in jail his whole life. Trump‘s birthday card to Epstein, does not shed any new light on what we already know of Trump and will not stop pedophilia or protect young people from future abuse. It distracts from the real issues.

I don’t care about salacious birthday cards from 25 years ago. I care about public health, upholding of the laws of the country, and supporting the most vulnerable. Among other things. Congress, and Senate, get to work on what’s really important.

Continued admiration for NIH colleagues who continue to toil in less than ideal environment in their passion to support science and innovation that only NIH funds.

Update- money came through at the 23rd hour to save the site and project. It didn’t need to be this way.

Furious that NIH is holding up grant money for a noncompetitive continuation that is supporting a randomized controlled trial in full swing despite approval by the specific institute and money already allocated. Being DOGE’d to ensure no forbidden science. Clinical sites at wit’s end!

A piece of good news! I am sure they will appeal and appeal and appeal until they reach the supreme court. Nonetheless, maybe this will stem the bleeding for nonsensical reasons. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/u...

One of the best things about scientific conferences is reconnecting with former colleagues. #CPDD25 is full of smart, accomplished addiction researchers, both preclinical and clinical.

In our $15 million HEAL funded multi-site clinical trial, we need the funds for current year expenses. Our sites are federally qualified health centers which cannot float research staff expenses. One of our best enrolling sites can't afford the staff salaries without guarantee of funding...

The current state of NIH is the epitome of waste- once the scientific institute vets the carry forward request, it goes into a black box where someone (political) outside the scientific institute has to approve the carry forward request before it is released. a thread...🧵

Hard to know how to respond to one after another jaw dropping bits of news from HHS and Kennedy- do we crawl under a bush and hope it just goes away? My weapon is to try to connect with others in a meaningful way in professional and personal life. Others who have different world views.

Some good news to keep me buoyed- in the past 6 months my three junior faculty mentees got scores of 20 (4th percentile), 24 (9th percentile) and 20 (3rd percentile) on their K23 grants, the first of which was just funded. Waiting to hear on the other two. Bright future for addiction research!!

Long Covid isn't an "identity". It's a disease entity recognized by health authorities, including WHO. Thousands of scientific publications detail the clinical and biological features of LC. It can kill. People with Long Covid deserve the utmost respect and best standard of care
