A shadow HHS member who has a presser after every RFK Jr edict to get up and say all that is wrong with the edict And so on 310016
Reposted by Meghan Kupratis, PhDRadley Balko @radleybalko.bsky.social · 05/03/2025CNN reporting that Senate Democrats are “disappointed” in House members for violating “decorum” at Trump’s speech last night. Just utterly clueless. And worth remembering next time those senators wax reverently about John Lewis. 3436127958

I met the person who developed this mechanism, Clifton Poodry, at an NSF meeting last fall; he is so inspiring. This supplement has funded thousands of mentees including myself.

Reposted by Meghan Kupratis, PhDKrystal Vasquez @kvasquez.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Anyway, I'm currently trying to find researchers impacted by the DEI executive order and NIH freeze, or anyone seeing other funding agencies headed in the same direction as the NIH. DM, email (k_vasquez@acs.org) or Signal (kvasquez.12). Can keep you anonymous, if needed. 036
Reposted by Meghan Kupratis, PhDBrendan Nyhan @brendannyhan.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Two things can be true 1. NIH and NSF could be run way better - the way we organize & fund science is hardly optimal 2. What we're seeing is NOT likely to lead to some sort of science reform but cronyism and culture war nonsense that undermines the valuable work NIH & NSF support Don't confuse them 1053384
