NIH indirect costs fund the backbone of research: maintaining labs, ensuring safety, and supporting admin work. These are essential for groundbreaking discoveries. Drastic cuts to NIH indirect rates are detrimental to academic biomedical research.

Since 2011, the SSA started randomizing SSN issuance, preventing any predictable patterns. SSNs are unique—no "duplicates" in the system. Fraud happens through identity theft, not duplicate SSNs. Elon is intentionally spreading misinformation now.

I, and every scientist I've talked to, believe the end result of this devastating cut will be that Universities will simply pass on the buck to investigators. Many of us fervently agree that university administrations & bureaucracy should be downsized and reformed. This maneuver

US science is under attack ‘Americans who value the spirit of discovery — and eagerly await new ways to confront disease, strengthen our economy and improve the quality of human life — need to issue a strong outcry.’ – Harold Varmus

“This will decimate our ability to function as an institution,” says one senior NIH scientist who had to notify staff that HHS was firing them. “Whatever the opposite of government efficiency is, this process will take us there.” science.org/content/articl…

I am recruiting for postdoctoral and technician positions at UCSD. If anyone with relevant skills/interests has lost funding due to the anti-DEI jihad or the NIH purge, I’m open to discussion of ways we can try to help out.

I was one of the probationary employees from USDA ARS that got let go on Friday. If you or someone you know is hiring for a position that aligns with my background (molecular bio, microbiol, plant path, virology, RNAi), I would greatly appreciate any referrals or recommendations.

I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

"The attack on Columbia is a radical threat to scholarly excellence and to America’s leadership in research. Universities and their leaders should speak up and litigate forcefully to protect their rights." — President Eisgruber writes in @theatlantic. bit.ly/4iDZ2Fx

Just heard that our NIH funding to learn how to make broadly effective vaccines against pandemic threat coronaviruses is being terminated Lysenko is in charge at NIH

Two journals tried paying peer reviewers and found increased acceptance, earlier reports, and no change in quality. WHAT A SURPRISE!

Great start to #aspet2025 tonight in Portland. Great posters, good people and ... lots of gnomes?

Awesome day at #aspet2025 for the Gaskill lab. Spoke dopaminergic immunology in HIV-associated inflammation in a symposium on "How the Immune System Tunes Monoamine Signaling", then Breana Channer and Tofunmi Oteju presented their fantastic data at the evening poster session.

3rd great day at #aspet2025. Fantastic hike at Multnomah falls, lunch at the food trucks and an afternoon of excellent science capped with another Gaskill lab poster by Marzieh Daniali, and the Catecholamine Society dinner, where Tofunmi Oteju received a Daniel T. O'Connor travel award.

One could only wish that Ivy League schools had leadership that spoke with the eloquence and courage of this dedicated educator, Jaime Cook Prek-12 Principal.
