I love your enthusiasm for science. It makes a refreshing change.

For our #flowcytometry peeps, would you like to have a single fix/perm protocol that is optimised for everything? One that preserves fluorophores while allowing simultaneous TF and cytokine staining? How about 100-fold cheaper?

You got it:

This is a research ethics emergency 🚨 on the scale of those we know from history - the Tuskegee syphilis study, Nazi β€œscientific”atrocities. The impact on the global clinical research field is immense. Will we (scientists, participants, communities, ethics committees) ever trust funders again?

We are looking for post-docs interested in studying T cell responses to M. tuberculosis infection…especially basic T cell immunologists who are interested in learning to work with BSL3 pathogens. The NIH intramural program is an amazing place to train!

Incomprehensible. Good people doing excellent science are defunded while blue origin is given 2 billion dollars. It belies belief.

I just can't put this devastation into words. I am so sorry. And absolutely will impact TB incidence in the coming years.

This is well written and makes me so sad for the future of science in America.

This is so heartbreaking. I cannot believe any of this has to be defended. It's completely insane.

A graph showing reported measles cases in the United States. The line shows that there were regularly 400-600,000 cases each year until 1963, when the measles vaccine was licensed, at which point cases plummet. In 2000, the elimination of measles was declared.

Vaccines have granted families in wealthy countries the luxury of forgetting what measles, polio, rubella, and other preventable diseases are like.

We're looking at how many millions of lives vaccines have saved.

We are currently dealing with the abhorrent US funding cuts. The devastation will impact for years and it's the patients who will suffer most. It's unforgivable and will push back progress on TB by decades.

I just ached for you, particularly the debt you're now in. Have you done crowd funding? I'd be happy to organise something for you. We have to defeat this disease!
