Lots of talk abt how to repair the fracture between science & the public and build trust. The best place to start? Take a stand against tyranny… not because your grant got canceled, but because you’ve read a history book & you know what happens when govt misuses science against the public. 1/

A great thread describing what it really takes to be a federal grant funded lab. Take home: YEARS of effort from multiple (sometimes many) people. Years.

Everyone should read this. The take home: we will be less heathy if we cut NIH funding.

🧪 THIS. JB being schooled on what clinical trials have been canceled. This clip is worth listening to. A clinical trial is a huge undertaking, a multi year commitment. Ending a $5 million research study when it is 80% complete does not save $1 million it wastes $4 million.

A lot of really good ideas in here. My one question: how can we connect interested researchers with interested groups?

On Friday, my son stayed home from school because he had a sore throat and wasn’t feeling well. He went with my husband to his office for the morning while I handled our daughter. When he came back at lunch, he was not interested in eating, saying his throat hurt too much. 1/n

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety. This won’t go well—we love our parks.

NEW: The NIH has begun terminating grants for active projects studying gender identity, DEI, environmental justice, climate change, among other topics. At least 16 termination letters have already been sent — and hundreds more are coming, people inside NIH tell me. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants

Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.
