Wrote my congressman and senators today to ask them to speak up against the sudden and capricious cancellation of study sections at the NIH. Delaying funding for essential research into human health is idiotic.

Devastating is right. All NIH study sections and council meetings through Feb 1 canceled. 100s of grant’s review and consideration needlessly halted. Each application represents years of work carefully structured into a proposal to tackle the next most important questions in biomedical research.

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Our latest work led by @claraliao.bsky.social is a collaboration with the other Kwan lab @kwanlab.bsky.social We used single-nucleus RNA sequencing to measure transcriptional responses in the mouse medial frontal cortex following a single dose of psilocybin. 🍄 🧠 🧬 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
