Thanks for the links. We’ve been feeling a bit restless for change and looking for a clear way to act (and trapped at home in the other ice). My kids were all moved to chip in too from their earnings from being research participants. Sending good wishes

I recommend reading the age 18 follow-up on the Bucharest Early Intervention Project: Children in foster care had significantly stronger communication & socialization skills than their peers who remained in institutional care, and higher quality was critical. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40638296/#fu...
HAPPY 75th, NSF!
We’re celebrating this milestone by highlighting some of NSF’s most transformative accomplishments—innovations that have shaped our world and continue to drive progress in health, technology, the environment, and beyond.
Read on 🧵(1/11):
How bad will it be? Catastrophic.
Proposed cuts to #NSF, #NIH, and #NASA will set the US R&D landscape back 25 yrs+, cause economic and job loss now, and undermine innovations to come.
But, this is the WH's *proposed* budget.
Speak up now before it is too late.

Here’s how Trump’s war on science is going. NSF funding is at the lowest level in decades. We’ll lose knowledge, generations of scientists, and US competitiveness.

In the past month 4 trainees in my lab lost: NIH diversity supplement, MARC, & STEP-Up funding. NSF SBE meeting (incl. ECRs) indefinitely postponed. Pipeline cuts disproportionately affect underrepresented scholars. Individual lives & our collective future impacted. #ScienceMatters
Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants
the grants are not “subsidies” or “entitlements” to Harvard or Princeton or whatever
they aren’t going into universities’ endowments
they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research
Senator Cory Booker on the economic value of the NIH and what we stand to lose with the Trump administration destroying scientific research
Just found out NIH has officially canceled our grant, a longitudinal study of Alzheimer's disease in Black Americans. I cannot even put into words how angry I am. The truth is they are canceling it because it has Black in the title. That's it, there is no other reason to do this.

I just completed this survey and it was so validating to write out my thoughts. I'll admit that I scrolled past the last time I saw the link so, if that happened to you, here's the link again below.
not paying indirect costs for research is like only paying the players in the Super Bowl.
can't have a Super Bowl without coaches, referees, security, janitors, announcers, stadium staff, and a stadium - and you can't have research without supporting people and facilities
@lkfazio.bsky.social any chance you have recs?
