So much wrong with this. But it would basically flag all scientific studies. Thank you for posting @darbysaxbe.bsky.social

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Hi Bluesky!👋 We’re a research program at UCSF that studies reproductive health, rights, and access. We work hard to uncover the data so that policies can be research-driven. Follow us here so we can keep you updated on our latest research.

I was briefly quoted in this @nytimes.com article about one of my passions: Gynecologic health care! I spend basically all my work time trying to understand and improve care for heavy uterine bleeding, fibroids, etc. There’s a lot of work to do. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/h...

To improve pandemic preparedness for #MCH & #nutrition, we can use vital statistics data to evaluate state efforts + outcomes during COVID. @mariethoma.bsky.social found that states w/ EBT for WIC (Women, Infants and Children) mitigated declines in enrollment over states w/ paper-based systems.
