Opinion piece: For too long, animal studies have overlooked #TimeOfDay as a critical biological variable. That needs to change. In PNAS Front Matter: ow.ly/9Vah50SOgYi #CircadianRhythms #SleepWakeCycle #chronobiology

Honored to be in Boulder, CO with these amazing undergraduate students from around the country, and learn about their summer research experiences through the sleep/circadian R25 directed by Ken Wright. Really fantastic program.

Moving school start times is a critical step we can take to help teens get more sleep! Learn more to get started… Also- loved writing this with a high school student on our RISE team who benefited directly from this change!

A note for tomorrow: ANYONE WHO IS TRICK-OR-TREATING AT FIFTEEN IS PRESUMPTIVELY CLINGING TO THE RITUALS OF CHILDHOOD AT THE MOST DISCOMBOBULATING MOMENT OF THEIR LIVES. THROW CANDY AND KINDNESS AT THEM

Trump's proposal is ILLEGAL & amounts to an indiscriminate funding cut for research centers of all sizes, NOT just Ivies. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, & derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction.

Agreed. One of the most devastating effects of NIH an U.S. National Science Foundation funding cuts is that it will severely limit our ability to train the next generation of American scientists putting this country at a disadvantage for years to come.

The ACNP has joined forces with other brain and behavior organizations in opposition of the NIH imposed standard indirect cost rate. acnp.org/about-us/state…

Funding from the NIH contributed to the development of 354 out of 356 (99.4%) of the new drugs approved by the FDA between 2010 and 2019, and 🚨 100% 🚨 of FDA approved drugs btw 2010-2016. NIH funding is the backbone of American biomedical innovation. #protecttheNIH

This breaks my heart 💔 Some of my most successful trainees were Pitt PhDs, and I helped run the neuroscience grad program for a few years - one of the best & largest in the country Scientific progress will halt if we stop training the next generation wesa.fm/health-science…

Weakening Harvard is not in the national interests of the United States of America. If we are going to compete with China in the 21st century, we have to strengthen our best universities, not destroy them.

Man comes to the US from Lebanon. Starts out delivering pizzas, becomes a Nobel winning neuroscientist. Trump freezes his funding, he gets an email from China offering to move his lab “any city, any university I want" with guaranteed funding for 20 years. What are we doing?
