I take care of children who DIE of conditions that we can’t prevent and that despite our very best efforts we cannot cure. The fact that CHILDREN DIE of diseases that can be completely eradicated with safe and effective vaccines makes me LIVID.

This is what amounts to an ILLEGAL & indiscriminate funding cut for research centers everywhere. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, and derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction. We all need to speak out to save lives.

Opinion | I’m a health researcher. NIH’s pause on research grants could have a devastating cost.
This is a potentially devastating event — not just for the scientific community, but for all Americans.

I know it’s obvious, but I think it’s still worth saying out loud: Someone who wants to end fact checking wants to be able to lie to you without detection. When lies are undetected, they start to shape our reality. We’re a lot more vulnerable when we can’t tell that a lie is a lie.

My friends in the Dementia world. Please read this and consider what the effects on healthcare for people with Alzheimer’s disease in England would have been if NICE had approved lecanemab and donanemab for NHS use. And, of course, they don’t have clinical efficacy, anyway!

I will never stop being aghast that the United States built a higher education system that was literally the envy of the entire world—our bitterest political enemies nonetheless sent their children to us to be educated, it was so good—& then just decided to systematically, ruthlessly dismantle it
