I'm raising money for Breakthrough T1D (new name for JDRF) to change the lives of people with type 1 diabetes.
We appreciate any support. This funding aids T1D research, which is even more important now with the uncertainty surrounding traditional research funding mechanisms.

Wow. Just to make this clear to people who aren't familiar - this means that if 100 scientists submit R01s, maybe 50 will get discussed and about 2-3 will get funded at that payline. Correct me if my math is off.

I helped explain to the Chicago Tribune the enourmous and irrational damage the NIH funding freeze is causing at Northwestern. “You’re at risk of losing an entire next generation of scientists" "it’s terrifying; it’s completely senseless." www.chicagotribune.com/2025/06/07/w...

Science is under attack. Proposed 40% NIH cut threatens jobs, research, and medical progress. Call your reps, governor, and mayor now—urge them to stand up for science.

Paradoxically, both GIPR agonism and antagonism potentiate weight loss when paired with GLP-1R agonism. Two new studies in @natmetabolism.nature.com decode the different neural mechanisms employed by each strategy.

The National Institutes of Health had to stop considering new grant applications, delaying funding for research into diseases ranging from heart disease and cancer to Alzheimer's and allergies.

Ok scientists & those who love science 🧪: here is another exhortation. Call Congress TODAY about the freeze on NIH Council Meetings and Study Sections. Emphasize that this means NO new grants are being funded & labs will soon start to shut down and fire employees. Phone numbers are at:

I've been developing a semantic search tool that covers not just bioRxiv and medRxiv, but the entire PubMed database. This means you can search across a massive collection of biomedical research using keywords, questions, hypotheses, or even full abstracts. Try it out: mssearch.xyz

Reminder: You can always submit a grant late and include a cover letter saying why. NIH receipt and referral may take it. Or not. If you end up missing deadline because of these Commons access issues, there is this potential save move.
