Hahah Darrel Issa is now “threatening” to carpetbag off to Texas to try to stay in Congress? Ahahahahaa.

This is Judge William Young who also ruled that NIH grant terminations were illegal and also called out the racism even though it was not an issue raised in the case.

It is satisfying when judges call out clearly what is presented to them.

I've heard horror stories from friends and colleagues in the Humanities about this. Thankfully it was never a thing in STEM

6-Methyl nicotine and nicotine have similar thermoregulatory and reinforcing effects in middle aged female rats with a history of nicotine vapor self-administration The nicotine analog 6-methyl nicotine (6-MN) has recently appeared in non-tobacco nicotine delivery products, including oral pouches and e-cigarette l…

6-methyl nicotine is appearing in e-cigarette products in an attempt to evade federal and state regulation of nicotine products. Our initial study is now published.

So very sorry for the loss of your colleague and friend, Brian. This is a shocking loss.

If white santa lady isn't trying to excuse the behavior, why is she saying this? What purpose does it serve to try to say these girls "would look legal"? and barf "legal". come the fuck on Megyn.

The New Innovators fo 2025?

They are not up on the usual website, but here they are:

On July 4th, I emailed Bhattacharya to save him the trouble of figuring this out since we had created the

NIH Director's New Innovator Award (DP2)

in 2007 which provides relatively generous funding for 5 years for innovative early stage investigators.

Also bears noting now that he's being talked about that it was Bill De Blasio who brought universal school lunches to NYC in addition to universal pre-K. Say what you will about his tenure, but these were transformative policies that are now taken for granted. Put some respect on the man's name.

Trump and Republicans: We really really want people to go hungry while we build our ballroom.

Director Bhattacharya "Let's fund emerging investigators"

Yeah, who's the idiot running NIH who allowed 15% or few fewer early stage investigators be funded in FY2025 compared to FY2024?

(Estimate: The official numbers are not yet available (at least publicly)

Oh, was that discouraging to talented young scientists?

No.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Well, we do have JD Vance to worry about. Think of the children.

No, that’s also Truther Nitabach. I endorse taco diversity.

Interesting academic news.

Is this like when white women who were raised Republican realize they are a feminist?

My best friend told me: "I had heard Mamdani was a Socialist. Then I listened to him in an interview. That's when I realized, 'Damn, I'm a Socialist, too'. Who knew?"

The problem is not what some percentage of people “think”. The problem is that President Trump *is* a potentially dangerous dictator whose power should be limited before he destroys American democracy.

They both smell of onions and mustard, correct?

Hoagie truther alert. 🙄

I would be very interested in hearing how this specific study, *the way it was actually conducted*, does not inform us about the likely impact re pharmacokinetics on humans.

It is unwise to poke the bear.

Mikie, mikie, mikie. My dude. Republicans are already a permanent minority. You only keep political power by gerrymandering, theft of SCOTUS seats and by the rich buying elections.

“Trump, unlike George Bush II, Clinton, Obama, and Biden, had not appointed a Black woman to any top role within his cabinet. “

“because we knew Trump would punish us, and that no one would defend or protect us.”

That is not at all how the testing was done in that study.
