Our education system pushes young people into debt unless they come from a family with money. That is not how we build a future. We need to make community colleges, technical schools, & public universities tuition-free—and President Biden must use his power to #CancelStudentDebt.

Can someone explain to me why the richest country in the history of the world somehow “can’t afford” national paid family and medical leave but has no problem finding $768,000,000,000 to pour into our defense budget?

Monday November 8th, at 9AM PST, Muscle Science Talks will host Dr. Foteini Mourkioti from @penn for a talk on “Dynamics of skeletal muscle-resident stem cells during regeneration in muscle diseases”. Stay tuned!

Today is a sad, but exciting day. Last day with this view. I am so thankful for everyone in Gabrielle Kardon lab for the past 5 years. In August I will be joining the team at BioFire Defense with the role of Senior Clinical Affairs Scientist.

Many of the same Republicans who just voted against protecting birth control and celebrated when Roe was overturned also oppose paid family leave and efforts to make childcare affordable. This is not about supporting families—it’s about dragging women back in time.

Four states had ballot measures with constitutional amendments on abortion rights: Michigan, Kentucky, Vermont, and California. And abortion rights won in all four elections. The American people are on our side. And we’re going to keep up the fight.
