I am excited (as usual) about attending #Worm25. But I am also sad that so many friends and colleagues can't be there. Because you know....insane policies and war and such. Hoping the science will provide at least a temporary distraction from the unending chaos.

For U.S. science, a small step back from the brink And an evidence-based path for you to help on Friday.

What would it take for us to step back from the brink of losing a functional democracy?

One step is court orders. Today, a small piece of good news for NIH.

Another step is large-scale protest.

Today I describe how these two components fit together: samwang.substack.com/p/for-us-sci...
