The cap doesn’t start until Sep 25, so I’m guessing previous apps don’t count? At least, I really hope so…

Anthony Anderson. Possibly best known from Black-ish, but the two of them also hosted a BBQ cookery show together.

I’m new to reading budget requests, so this may be a naive question, or a misunderstanding. On page 5 of the exec summary it says that half of the RPG budget is reserved to pay the whole outyear costs of a grant, instead of competing then non-competing renewals. Does that mean fewer awards/year?

For anyone on this side of the pond, this is a fantastic lab in a great city.

Congrats to Bellina, and good luck in your new role!

Along with collaborators at Pitt, she showed that recombinant Adropin reversed diastolic dysfunction, cardiac fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in HFpEF.

Adropin protects against cardiac metabolic remodeling and dysfunction in HFpEF Cardiometabolic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogenous metabolic disease, which in the heart presents as left ventricle diastolic dysfunction, ventricular stiffness, ...

New preprint from the lab, led by Bellina Mushala, who just left to take up a new post at Eli Lilly

Thanks to DOM alumni Drs. Eileen Wong, Ana Gorelova, Chelsea Merkel, and Charly Lai for taking part in our Postdoc Career Day session during the ⁦‪Pitt DOM Research Day.

Clearly, for the person that designed the cards for this game, the answer wasn’t “a dictionary”

If there was no time to leaven the bread, surely there would be no time to remove the apple peel. Leaving it on just seems consistent on a process level.

I wonder if there is a difference between new K99s vs. new Ks in general, given the eligibility differences?

Is it usual for some of these meetings to be all open to the public? Most of the ones I have seen are either closed, or have a closed portion for grant discussions. The NHLBAC seems to be all open to the public - does that mean no grants will be discussed?

I agree - the only thing that gives hope is that they went to the trouble of updating their own IC webpage, which they didn’t do for all the other false dawns.

Not sure if it’s in the FR yet, but NHLBI has planned a make-up meeting in April and their regular one in June (according to their website, and eRA Commons).

Just had a review assignment for an NLHBI SEP canceled (was invited to review last month for a meeting in May). It seems like the plan to remove all IC-based review is in full swing.

No, again it’s on eRA commons. I’m pretty sure it’s just gaslighting me. Although, it was for a grant that was ND’d, so the jokes on them!

On the (possible) upside, there is now a NHLBI Advisory Council date listed for June that wasn’t there yesterday.

Annoying update - study section date was removed from eRA commons after a day

Might just have been an eRA commons update of a previously listed meeting

The date of the meeting was just added today (not that I have been checking daily - honest!)

It’s a SEP from NHLBI, so not a primary CSR section

I just saw a non-R01 study section get scheduled for May (weirdly it normally meets in June/July). Not sure if it was in the register beforehand.

Wasn’t it called SILK?

Feel the same way about spendthrift. Feels like it means the opposite of what it should.

I have reached the stage where the bags under my eyes in the morning come with their own accompanying set of matching luggage.

Did you have any FOIA requests for the grant? Would be quite a thing to create a whole funded app from the abstract and title.

Having spent my first 25 years in the UK, and the next 17 in the US, I wasn’t sure who I’d be rooting for when the Ryder Cup started this year. Turns out it was Europe as always.

That’s my current hesitation for a full switch, but I’m hoping that will be rectified soon.
