Who wants to spend a few hours with me and my lab? It’s two MRIs of your brain, cognitive tests, and some bloodwork. Help us find treatments for cognitive aging, by studying healthy cognition in mid life!

The U.S. Is Funding Fewer Grants in Every Area of Science and Medicine
A quiet policy change means the government is making fewer bets on long-term science.

I was interviewed about the NIH funding cuts and delays, which have been catastrophic for many scientists. My lab is waiting on a new grant on cognitive aging that has been delayed. I would hope this has bipartisan support. Consider calling your congress person; your health depends on it.
Johns Hopkins doctor warns NIH grant funding cuts putting essential science years behind
"If there is not a pipeline of people to come after me, and to fund the research, then this is going to take generations to fix."

NIH has rescinded its scientific integrity policy. Hard to see this as anything other than clearing the way for shoddy research on things like vaccines. Regardless of the rationale, it's bad news for public health. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...
