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

Cuts in NIH research grants will have a lasting negative impact on science and medicine in the U.S. Grants will continue to fund specific research costs, but essential infrastructure like labs, advanced equipment and support staff are crucial for groundbreaking work.

Science is under threat.

A two-and-a-half-year-old girl shows no signs of a rare genetic disorder, after becoming the first person to be treated for the motor-neuron condition while in the womb. go.nature.com/4i9BpEx

I am proud that my department chair (and former NIMH director), psychiatrist & neuroscientist Dr. Josh Gordon, will be addressing the NYC rally.

Breaking news: Thousands of researchers and their supporters, including recently fired federal workers, have gathered across the U.S. in response to layoffs and funding cuts ordered by the Trump administration. scim.ag/3FlSKvz

My heart goes out to all my colleagues Columbia University that, through no fault of their own, are suddenly facing a funding cliff where research will stop and people will be fired.

Excited to share this work from the Garcia Lab out today in Nature Communications! We engineer "cytokine adaptors", molecular switches that simultaneously block a target cytokine while inducing local activation of alternative cytokine receptors. rdcu.be/ec7GS

The cryptic world of prokaryotic reverse transcriptases continues to excite! 🦠🧬 Stoked and proud to see this story out--congrats to Stephen, Rimantė, Nate, Shishir, and the rest of the 'DRTeam'!

Complete reversal of spinal cord injury and restoration of walking can be achieved with directed axonal regeneration. Fascinating Science Magazine study showed that guiding transected axons to their natural targets led to full functional recovery, whereas non-targeted axonal

I know this might sound crazy, but people who have real direct patient care experience should own and operate our healthcare system.

Cool new study from Victoria E. Abraira lab on tactile hypersensitivity associated with chronic pain. Glad we could collaborate. One cool thing Abraira lab did was use high-speed videography plus the PAWS pain detection system for uncovering pain behaviors. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Human suffering can be decoded from brain activity. Fascinating Dr Laurie K Mischley study showed that chronic pain severity can be accurately inferred from the prefrontal cortex, thus enabling objective pain tracking and close-loop stimulation approaches for chronic pain.

I don't understand how someone can read this and not think that the American biomedical research system is a modern miracle that should be protected at all costs

6/ In addition, HHS is being super sloppy. Saying in this tweet x.com/SecKennedy/sta… the CDC would no longer recommend that healthy pregnant women get a COVID vaccination, when in NEJM last week, they listed pregnancy & recent pregnancy as risk factors for severe COVID:

I debated whether to share my story on here, but I guess I will. I think there's an idea out there that millions of violent criminals are pouring across the border, carrying machetes and drugs, looking to harm Americans. Certainly, while some people fall into that category, the

Jay, can you explain why practically zero $$ was given out by the NIH in May? Including already awarded grants!

Are mini proteins the new antibodies? Mini proteins are highly stable, easy to manufacture, and very quick to design thanks to recent AI methods. Unlike mAbs, there is a large body of structural data to train machine learning models on to generate de novo mini protein binders.

Ishmail Abdus-Saboor lab: you guys are awesome!!! We are proof that we can all collaborate, share and support each other. Science is more fun when we work together!!
