Starting in Spring or Summer 2027 K99/R00 (under its new activity code KT1/R00) will only be available to US citizens, permanent residents, and non-citizen nationals. I am hearing this from many program officers, but NIH has yet to make an official statement to my knowledge.

Neuroscience in Chile, and across Latin America, does not lack talent or ideas, but the systems that make science visible—prestige journals, conferences and networks—increasingly price its researchers out, argues @medelero.bsky.social. #neuroskyence

Scientific talent is global. Access is not.

Postdoc position in systems neuroscience! Excited to recruit a postdoc for my lab at the University of Bonn. 🔬 In vivo physiology (Neuropixels, 2P/miniscope) 🐭 Head-fixed & freely moving behaviour 💡 Optogenetics/chemogenetics ⏳ Start: ASAP | Application deadline: 28.02.2026 More info below ⬇️

The research group “Sensory Dynamics and Behaviour” of Prof. Dr. Tobias Ackels at the Institute of Experimental Epilepsy and Cognition Research at the
University Hospital Bonn invites applications for a position as:
Postdoctoral Researcher (m/f/d)
The position is initially limited to three years (TV-L E13/100%),
starting from April 2026 or as soon as possible.

Here's a quick analysis I did on data I've been collecting on psych/neuro faculty applicants. I don't have data on unsuccessful applicants, but my inference is that women mentored by women have to rely more on bringing in $ to get a faculty job than men mentored by men.
