It seems easy to make fun of basic science – for example why would you want to study bacterial immune systems? But then you would have to admit that that’s exactly what led to the discovery of using CRISPR as an insanely good technology for genome engineering.

Conservatively it cost taxpayers ~$10M for Trump to attend and be booed at the Super Bowl a few hours last night. That’s enough for FIVE 5-year R01 grants (plus 2024 level of indirects). Five labs studying important questions in biomedical science until 2030. Govt Efficiency?!

What amount of eye disease research would have discovered the laser? How much virology would have discovered lipid nanobody mRNA delivery? How many disease genes would you need to find before you discovered CRISPR? Sometimes the hardest problems need discoveries in other fields

We strongly oppose the recent decision by NIH, under Acting Director Dr. Matthew Memoli, to reduce the reimbursement rate for "indirect costs" to 15% for all research institutions. Read our statement in full: ow.ly/JQig50UY71T.

This is Oligarchy. The three richest men in the world have become $196 BILLION richer since Donald Trump was elected. $196 billion for three men in 99 days. Meanwhile, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Thrilled we were part of #KSTCells25 @KeystoneSymposia in Vancouver 🇨🇦 and reunited with T cell friends & colleagues! Huge thanks to co-organizers Amanda Lund Lab, Nik Joshi & Delgoffe Lab. We can’t wait for the next one!!

Basic science is inspired by curiosity, accountable to evidence, and subject to peer review. Politics should have no role.

🔬As we close this year’s #BlackHistoryMonth, I honor the legacies of those who persevered, innovated, and expanded human knowledge—despite the obstacles before them. A personal reflection on legacy, science, and the responsibility of diversity, equity, & inclusion (DEI). 🧵👇

In an unprecedented move, the US National Institutes of Health has begun mass terminations of research grants that fund active scientific projects because they no longer meet “agency priorities”. go.nature.com/4i2EaIb

Science is an investment that pays enormous dividends. So if you’re business-minded, it’s an offer you can’t refuse! Here's my full speech from the Stand Up For Science rally in DC today (Link and text below)

Stand up for Science NYC!!

Cancer research cannot wait! In response to NIH uncertainty & funding cuts, we’re committing $2.5M to support 10 additional postdoctoral fellowships over the next year at leading universities and research centers worldwide. Details: bit.ly/4iEQNsJ #CancerResearch
