Well, this is a brilliant #IDSky article that cuts close to the bone! 😬 Reframes #academia as an infection for which the causative organism may be less easy to define, but that can be just as insidious on affected individuals (clinical academics)! #AcademicSky #MedSky 🧪 @cidjournal.bsky.social

It starts innocently. A paper you’re proud of, the thrill of seeing your name on PubMed. Everyone is genuinely happy for you; you’re a threat to no one. Bu

With ACIP sidelined, the Vaccine Integrity Project is convening trusted experts to ensure immunization guidance remains evidence-based, with IDSA leading efforts for immunocompromised and high-risk populations. www.statnews.com/2025/07/03/v...

The U.S. government is failing on vaccine policy. The Vaccine Integrity Project is here to help

The Vaccine Integrity Project will convene experts to assess the evidence on influenza, RSV, and Covid-19 to equip clinicians with reliable, evidence-based information.

How bad will it be? Catastrophic. Proposed cuts to #NSF, #NIH, and #NASA will set the US R&D landscape back 25 yrs+, cause economic and job loss now, and undermine innovations to come. But, this is the WH's *proposed* budget. Speak up now before it is too late. (inflation adjusted $-s below)

NSF, NASA and NIH budgets per year, inflation adjusted from 2000-2025 along with the proposed cuts. NSF includes research component only. Massive cuts across all sectors, well below support spanning 25 years.
