Congratulations!!!!!! 🩷

Let's be clear: no one should be taking medical advice from the man who told Americans to inject bleach.

To moms worried about the Tylenol they took while pregnant: you deserve better than being RFK Jr's scapegoat.

And to the autism community: you are loved exactly as you are.

Acetaminophen Use During Pregnancy and Children’s Risk of Autism, ADHD, and Intellectual Disability This nationwide cohort study with sibling control analysis examines the association of acetaminophen use during pregnancy with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, and intellectual disability.

The @washingtonpost.com story on Tylenol & autism leaves out a MAJOR 2.5M sibling-controlled study of children in Denmark, which "found no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

After ruling, with anger in his voice, Judge Young:

"This represents racial discrimination. And discrimination against America's LGBTQ community. That's what this is. I would be blind not to call it out. My duty is to call it out. And I do so."

Federal judge rules that hundreds of NIH grant terminations were 'void and illegal' A federal judge ruled that some of the grant terminations by the National Institutes of Health on DEI grounds are “void and illegal.”

From coast to coast, city streets to small town squares, you showed up. And it mattered.

Honored to announce: 12.1 million in attendance.

Trump’s new ‘gold standard’ rule will destroy American science as we know it | Colette Delawalla The new executive order allows political appointees to undermine research they oppose, paving the way for state-controlled science

Opinion piece by @cdelawalla.bsky.social, Nobel laureates Victor Ambrose, Carol Greider et al.
The EO called "Restoring Gold Science" has a plan for enshittification of science; political loyalists have power over experts & punish those who don't fall in line.🧪

A word cloud made from flagged terms in terminated NIH grant proposals. The most prominent words in large font include “trans,” “diverse,” “diversity,” “minority,” “sex,” “expression,” “mental health,” “gender,” and “women.” Other visible terms include “LGBTQ,” “racial,” “underrepresented,” “disability,” “barriers,” “black,” “equity,” “health equity,” “vaccine,” “bias,” and “intersectionality.” The word cloud highlights terms related to identity, inclusion, and marginalized communities.

HAPPY PRIDE 🏳️‍🌈

Under Trump, research using terms like “Trans,” “LGBTQ,” & “Gender identity” is being defunded. These terms reflect real people who deserve science that includes them.

Stand with us to protect LGBTQ+ science from political erasure.

I had a heartbreaking conversation with a talented trainee who spent 1 month on their Hanna Gray application (only have that program canceled after submission). Followed by a pep talk. And an insightful brainstorm around the Q: how can we (professors) do better for trainees in uncertain times?

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Happy Mother’s Day to the feisty science moms out there.

You’re brilliant! You balance and manage SO MUCH. You bring excellence, creativity, innovation, and humanity to the world.

If I hadn’t seen others having families AND doing science, I wouldn’t have realized I could do it, too.

Thank you ❤️

I am teaching my phd writing workshop course this quarter, question: are there any words/phrases said to you by an advisor/mentor that stuck with you, were memorable, or particularly helpful? If so please reply below!

Wow, when i was on it at WVU, we met for an hour every other week. Looking forward to those recipe background stories…

Addressing Recent Misinformation About Autism Recent statements from HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. contradict scientific consensus and potentially threaten essential research, services, and supports for autistic people.

Backyard birds! A great blue heron and a hawk (i think)! Also, i should not consider a career as a nature photographer.

Its a terrible pic, but we had one in our backyard yesterday!

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Every day is a good day to fight for trans rights.
