I've written a short pice on workplace bullying in academia, the quiet kind that hides behind “high standards”, and what early career researchers can do if it happens to them. communities.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/c/phd-studen...

Excited to announce that I’ll be presenting at the upcoming PTSD Research Conference on May 5-6, 2025, in Boston! ptsd-conference.com/speakers2025 🗓️Considering signing up and attending!!! #PTSDResearch #MentalHealth #PTSDConference #Neuroscience #Boston #Research

🚨 With federal funding dwindling, we’ve created a starter pack of funding bodies offering #grants for #research🔬 📣 Repost & 💙 to connect #researchers with #funding 💵 💶 💷 #ResearchFunding #NIH #ERC #AcademicSky #MedSky #AcademicChatter #ECRChat #NewPI #academia #science #StandWithScience #eloquenti

I am doing a career panel today in person which means I have to wear a collared shirt. Horrible. Terrible. I hate the concept of professionalism. A curse upon shirts that are not t-shirts.

NBC News story about NIH Director nominee...Not a great fit for NIH and, perhaps, a destructive agenda. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt... 1/2

Who is Dr. Jay Bhattacharya? Trump’s pick to lead the NIH faces Senate confirmation hearing

As director, Bhattacharya would oversee the nation's top medical research agency, which is set to undergo drastic changes.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Just received notice that our grant was terminated. 5R24AG066599-03 TheRiseRegistry.org

NIH partially lifts freeze on funding process for medical research

Thousands of grant applications had been stalled when the Trump administration blocked the National Institutes of Health from posting notices to the Federal Register.

Hi! I am a new Assistant Professor at IGH at Mount Sinai. My lab is at the intersection of psychiatric and aging diseases leveraging #EHR and #omics data. I am welcoming new #postdocs and #PhD students. #jobs #hiring

Indirect rates are not determined by NIH. Instead, they are the product of elaborate negotiations between each institution and the “cognizant federal agency” according to an Office of Management and Budget document, Circular A-21. 1/n

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...

"Many of my good friends have their funding withdrawn or frozen based on the DEIA wording such as 'diverse microbes'" a scientist reliant on federal research grants told me, adding NSF proposals with terms including 'disabilities' and 'female' have been put on hold

I'm a reporter at NBC News and I'm interested in speaking with people who are familiar with the specific technical details of onboarding DOGE staff at the federal agency level — USAID or CFPB or wherever. You can reach me on Signal at: davidingram.77. I can honor requests for anonymity.

The indirect cost rate for NIH has averaged between 27% and 28% - it is now capped at 15% … this may not sound like much but the impact will be huge… if institutions dont speak out now, then when? #AcademicSky 🧪
