Check out the SNAP Panel at @sciencetalkorg.bsky.social #ScienceTalk26 at 2pm PT on March 26th! Members will share lessons from organizing national initiatives that connect policymakers, researchers, and communities. Stop by posters from additional SNAP members too! #SciComm #ECRs #SciPol

Thank you to @mildobserver.bsky.social from SF Public Press for highlighting the challenges facing researchers in today’s uncertain funding environment. Check out the piece featuring SPG at UCSF leader @sneharao.bsky.social and our colleague @erinmorrow.bsky.social from @scipolucla.bsky.social!

What happens when science funding disappears? At UCSF and the SF VA, labs are laying off staff, trials are paused, and patients are left waiting. Our new Civic episode breaks down how federal cuts — and now a shutdown — are reshaping science in the Bay Area. 🎧

Thanks @mildobserver.bsky.social for taking the time to chat with me, superstar @erinmorrow.bsky.social & others. Our convo was inspired by the McClintock Letters, run by @cornellasap.bsky.social & @snapcoalition.bsky.social, w/ the mission of reconnecting scientists with their hometown communities.

The best group!!! Now is a great time to join us if you’re interested in learning about how to engage in advocacy and policy as a scientist!

There's still time to write a McClintock Letter in support of federal funding of research! Interested and don't know where to start? Join this workshop tomorrow, June 6th, at 12 ET ☀️ docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

As citizens concerned about the future #STEM #workforce, we want to hear stories and impacts of #federal #funding cuts on early career #scientists. Take the surveys by June 6! @scienceforgood.bsky.social @jpflores.rbind.io Impacts survey: bit.ly/3Z1aFPj Stories survey: bit.ly/3Sghx7R #savescience

Great feature! We are so lucky to have collaborators from @pspdg.bsky.social @gator-pase.bsky.social @sciforgood.bsky.social @spgatucsf.bsky.social @scipolnotredame.bsky.social @scipolucla.bsky.social @standupforscience.bsky.social @scopepolicy.bsky.social & more to make #McClintockLetters possible
