Congratulations Margarida Barroso @barroso8.bsky.social for receiving the Carpenter Ranch Award from @histochemicalsoc.bsky.social ! So well deserved!

Honored to receive the Rasch–Carpenter Award from @histochemicalsoc.bsky.social. Grateful for a community that has supported my imaging journey from the start. HCS has always been a welcoming home for young scientists, let’s keep it strong and relevant for the 21st century. Thank you!

What it's like inside the NIH under current conditions: not good. Terrible uncertainty and low morale, and an inability to order even basic materials because of trouble with the purchasing department:

The Continuing Crisis, Part IX: Inside the NIH Now

Times Union published my article today: "Science on the chopping block"

I hope to see you all at the NY State Capitol this Friday at 12:30! standupforscience2025.org/local-event-...

We’re Standing Up for Science – because science is for everyone. Thank you Rep Paul Tonko @reppaultonko.bsky.social for joining us at the NY State Capitol at Albany! #standupforscience2025 ・ #sciencenotsilence ・ #scienceforall #AcademicSky #science #ScienceSky 🧪

This update means that virtually all NIH study sections and councils, necessary to review and award grants, will not be scheduled until mid-April AT EARLIEST. The end of the fiscal year is September 30, and all appropriated monies must be spent by then. Meanwhile, the backlog continues to grow.

Read every word of this article to see what the Trump folks are doing to the good civil servants at NIH -- and to the important work that protects all of our health. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Inside the Collapse at NIH

Administration officials pressured NIH to avoid clear advice from the agency’s own lawyers to restart grant funding now.

Also included in the "Results Act" from Cruz and Roy—congress would be able to override the FDA's decision on a drug: "Grants Congress the authority to disapprove a denied application & override an FDA decision with a majority vote via a joint resolution." #medsky #biosky

I wrote an opinion piece for my hometown newspaper in Central NY about attacks on NIH/NSF/research and why this harms not just US science but local jobs and economies. Thanks @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social for sparking these efforts! I encourage others to join in! www.syracuse.com/opinion/2025...

Protect science funding driving innovation, investment in Syracuse (Guest Opinion by Jeffrey Mugridge)

Severe cuts to budgets and staff threaten to undermine the next generation of American scientists, writes professor who discovered his love of science as a Liverpool High student.

Despite reports to the contrary there is still no movement on the #NIH federal register. No cursory notices = no study sections or councils can meet = no new or renewed funding. www.federalregister.gov/agencies/nat...

The only NIH or NSF Notice to be submitted to the federal register today was a cancelation of an NSF Advisory Panel. Federal Granting Agencies are still being kneecapped by the administration

Here are some data documenting the funding "pause" pulled from NIH Reporter. Current results (FY25) (Red) are compared with results from FY21 (first year of Biden Administration) and FY24. Note that data from Reporter lag behind release of NoAs by ~1 week. I will be tracking this going forward.

I just wrote to both MI senators and my representative about this issue and SO SHOULD YOU

Glad to see this post getting some traction, because the Federal Register is the WHOLE ballgame, folks. To drive this point home, a recent EO declares that all posts to FR now must be approved by the White House. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

If the block on the Federal Register isn’t removed in the next few months, I fear a majority of labs will close within a year. This small procedural wrench has the power to kill US science indefinitely, losing an entire generation of discovery and innovation.

I had two grant proposals up for review in the NIH Bacterial Virulence (BV) study section. It was canceled without notice this morning. Without those grants, my lab must close within a year. And so the purge of scientific research in the US continues 🤬 #MicroSky 🦠🧫🧪🧬🔬
