Our thoughts are with the staff of the CDC, members of the Emory community and the family and friends of the slain officer, but they deserve more than thoughts and prayers. They deserve real action by leaders to make their community, and every community, a healthy and safe environment for all.

We cannot allow senseless gun violence to continue. on a black background with a yellow candle burning.

The average cost for having a child is about $13,393 for delivery alone. Families spend approximately $12,472 annually or $1,039 per month on daycare. So while elected officials celebrate Mother’s Day, they should also pass universal healthcare and universal childcare ASAP.

You know what I’ve learned teaching in a medical school? The greatest health concern for a pregnant woman in America is MURDER. It is dangerous for a woman here to get pregnant because she might get killed by the child’s father. That’s the crisis of masculinity.

After being stabbed in the eye today with the pointy end of a pipe cleaner, I am deeply regretting ever having said something annoyed me so much it made me want to stab my eye out.

Every time I've worked with an HHS employee as part of my grants, I've had two thoughts. 1. Holy shit that person is smart AND 2. Wow, they were so nice. Today's Reduction In Force layoffs are cruel to staff whose life mission it was to make the world a safer and healthier place. #academicsky

Anyone else lowkey freaking out about what is going to happen with NIH Loan Repayment Program applications? As of today the Health Disparities Research (L60) is still listed, but it feels like they cannot possibly award these? Any current awardees have any disruptions? #academicsky

What really pissed me off about our canceled nih grant is that it was supporting brilliant undergraduate students who had never had the opportunity to engage in research and will moenbe so demoralized by the prospect that they'll choose a different path The brain drain starts young #academicsky

I don't see enough people or reporters talking about the mass terminations of nih lgbtq+ grants that happened yesterday. How can we get the word out so communities understand the huge loss to science, safety, and economy this is?? #academicsky

Dr. Annelise Mennicke @miniamenni.bsky.social · 22/03/2025

So so so many NIH grants terminated yesterday and today for merely including lgbt people in the abstract (even just mentioning they are included in the sample). This is illegal and unjust attack on public health and vital social science #academicsky

I have a gaggle of undergrads in my social science lab who want to pursue medical careers (MD, PA, etc). I know the drill mentoring students to PhD, MPH, MSW, etc., but less so for med paths. What should they know? What experiences should I give them to make them competitive? #academicsky

not paying indirect costs for research is like only paying the players in the Super Bowl. can't have a Super Bowl without coaches, referees, security, janitors, announcers, stadium staff, and a stadium - and you can't have research without supporting people and facilities

Man, they are really hell bent on stopping Research, which by definition is the creation of knowledge - Innovation. Forward progress is a threat when you just want things to go back.
