Completely insane decision to walk away from one of the most promising medical technologies, allowing the US to get smoked in this area of biotech by other countries with more foresight.

People realize these are vaccines for CANCER, right? Like, cancer was going to become a treatable disease because of this funding. Now your cancer will be a death sentence, because of RFK and Trump.

Secretary Kennedy says he "reviewed the science" before terminating 22 mRNA vaccine projects worth $500M. The "data" cited? 181 pages of cherry-picked lab studies ignoring all the high-quality evidence. The US government is citing this as its scientific basis, which is outrageous:🧵

A shooting during a Catholic school Mass left two children dead and seventeen more injured. Today, top U.S. bishops went beyond thoughts and prayers. They’re demanding Congress act. Here’s what they said — and what they want passed. 👇

Pfizer’s COVID data isn’t hidden. It’s been reviewed by FDA, published in peer-reviewed journals, analyzed worldwide, and tracked in millions of people through real-world safety and effectiveness studies. Pretending otherwise is gaslighting, not “gold standard science.”

Science delivers medicines, clean air and water, safe food, and smarter choices—saving billions of lives. Proposed cuts to NIH and U.S. National Science Foundation would shutter labs, stall new cures, hurt our economy, and send future scientists elsewhere. Hear from patients saved by science:

David Baltimore (March 7, 1938 – September 6, 2025). His discovery of reverse transcriptase, along with Howard Temin and Satoshi Mizutani, illuminated the retrovirus life cycle, led to the discovery of viral oncogenesis mechanisms and antiviral RT inhibitors, and enabled

If you’re gonna destroy the Department of Education, go ahead and destroy my student loan debt right alongside it.

I love this paper. It is so clear and so essential! I send it to everyone. I really want to see more superplots in publications and less pseudo-replicates. And yes, it is something I was not well trained in but you should always be open to do better science! #ScientificRigor
