My lanyard was taken away and has not been returned. Louisiana police told me that if I set foot in the convention center I will be arrested.

I grew up in apartheid S Africa, where muzzling of speech and encroachment on academic freedom were the norm. I came to the USA to pursue a career in science. I never thought that at this stage of my career, I would ever experience my youth again. #StandUpForScience #ADA #ADA2026

As a Jewish faculty member at one of these institutions, I am saying right now, in the clearest tones possible: not in my name. This violent exploitation of Jews as an alibi for achieving Fascist ends is itself textbook antisemitism.

The Ed. Department's Office for Civil Rights sent letters to 60 additional institutions "warning them of potential enforcement actions" for "violations relating to antisemitic harassment and discrimination" including Harvard, Brown, Stanford, Princeton, UNC, and several UC's

Seems like the rate limiter is the number of sensors? @yann-lecun.bsky.social

While there are some aspects of this EO that could be promising, like focusing research on prevention as opposed to reactive medicine, there are a lot of concerning specifics. I highlight here just two.

Science is absolutely key to the US's success but this government's intention to now dramatically reduce the part of the federal grants that go to the university (in addition to the researchers; the "indirects") is like removing the unseen roots of a tree and expecting it to continue to flourish.

Is this our line in the sand? How can we review NIH applications knowing they specifically exclude members of our community?

Mark Baxter 🏳️‍🌈🧂@markgbaxter.bsky.social · last yr.

The members of the review panel should refuse to serve unless the applications are reinstated.

The members of the review panel should refuse to serve unless the applications are reinstated.

Reducing the indirect rate on NIH grants to 15% will kill biomedical and health research in the US. I'm not exaggerating here. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

This is an insane move for NIH to make when the obvious answer is to review all the F grants this cycle as a single pool.

Anita Devineni@anitadevineni.bsky.social · last yr.

My student's diversity F31 has been pulled from study section even though it's the SAME APPLICATION as regular F31s, normally reviewed together in the same panel. Throwing out all the applications from URMs while the ones from white/privileged students get to be reviewed is blatant discrimination.

My NIH NINDS Workforce Diversity Success Story is no longer on the NIH website. "403 Access Denied".

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...
