So great to get out on the water, see some beautiful kelp beds, and learn more about kelp microbiome sampling!

I'm beyond words at this point.
If I wanted to literally straight-up destroy any efforts at basic biology research in the US, this is exactly how I'd do it.

Is science political? - with Kevin Bird
Tiny Living Beings Β· Episode
On this weekβs ep, Kevin Bird (@stairwaytokevin.bsky.social) explains the events of the last 3 months, how science is funded in the United States, why it is being attacked so aggressively, and the ideologies behind these attacks. Found everywhere you get podcasts.

I got an email yesterday afternoon that my NSF SPRF Postdoctoral Fellowship was terminated. My grant focused on testing interventions to address online misinformation and I was 8 months into a two year appointment.

To expand on this, right now ~200 postdoc fellows directly funded by NSF are locked out of their salary &research funds right before the first of the month. No doubt other NSF funded grads &postdocs are affected as well. All requests for funds put in before the freeze are slowly being cancelled

Iβm so sorry youβre in this position. None of us can receive money from our awards right now, but Iβm not sure if there would be additional ramifications for starting the fellowship. If you send me your email, I can add you to the PRFB slack.

As of this AM, it is uncertain how NSF postdoc fellows will be impacted.
If you are on an NSF PRFB and not a member of the slack group, send me a message.
