Here is a word cloud of the words that were missing from the noncompetitive renewal awards but had been present in the parent award. 3/4
A word cloud with dominant words "equity", "disparity", "diverse", and similar words.

I can imagine the deep concern my research colleagues are feeling given the current pause at NIH *and* at the same time Iinvite us to consider how we want to transform these institutions and structures for the future so they benefit everyone. For instance, only 1% of NIH R01 recipients are Black.

I propose a new rule. If public schools in your state have open, unfilled positions for AAC-SLPs, universities in your state should not be allowed to hire AAC-SLPs to academia. disabled school children are competing with academia for access to AAC professionals and the disabled children are losing.

Research consistently shows no harm when disabled students are included in general ed classrooms, but great risks of harm when those students are segregated. Included kids not only develop better academic skills but better communication skills—and more. At @npr.org: www.npr.org/2024/12/19/n...

1. As is typical, the author couldn’t be bothered to speak to one disabled student. 2. Segregation is 100% wrong 3. More EAs 👍 4. More LSTs 👍 5. Zero tolerance for ABA 6. Culture change at school admin level needed 7. Ministry is focused on churning out future workers not education

It takes five years to conceive of the study. Four years to get funding to do it. Three years to perform the experiments. One year to analyze the data and write the manuscript. Four months to peer-review. Then the journal suddenly wants page proof corrections in just 48 hours over a holiday? Pfffft.
