New story from @dangaristo.bsky.social on the NSF grad fellowship cuts: A key point: “GRFPs are one of the most cost-effective ways for NSF to give out money,” Evans says, because the outcome is a trained, promising young scientist and it’s relatively inexpensive.

Major, (+) news. The NSF GRFP is a primary mechanism by which doctoral students are able to fund their research. These students receive a barely-livable stipend to do an enormous volume of scientific work; in exchange, they earn a PhD. 1 reason why academia is actually MORE efficient $ than industry

"Health disparities research" is a field of study where researchers look at how things like race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status can influence health outcomes. Now any gov't website about this says "page not found". This is a dystopia that I did not imagine that we'd be living through.
