Please stop saying the bill allows "no more multi-year funding" - or at least be clear the 'more' is in reference to disastrous FY25 levels.

The bill allows 39% MYF, same as in FY25, which contributed substantially to a 24% drop in new research.

The bill has some wins. MYF is not one of them.

The day after in Minneapolis: Whittier neighborhood recovers after Pretti killing, protests The south Minneapolis neighborhood was filled with visitors and residents attending vigils on Sunday.

Whittier in south Minneapolis was filled with visitors and residents attending vigils on Sunday.

“People are showing up and this is one of the most incredible and resilient places,” one resident said. “It’s special, and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.”

ICE sleeps somewhere. ICE buys food and beverages. ICE rents vehicles. ICE uses bathrooms. ICE buys fuel. Deny ICE access to food, beverages, fuel, bathrooms, and beds.

Live: Minnesota reels after latest fatal shooting by federal agents Protesters gathered at a park near where a man was shot and killed by federal agents Saturday. Federal officials say the man was armed.

State and local officials have urged a federal judge to issue an immediate order that would temporarily halt the massive deportation operation in Minnesota.

The matter is scheduled for a hearing at 9 a.m. Monday.

DHS funding bill faces new Senate hurdles after another person killed in Minneapolis Some Democrats who voted for recent funding bills said they'll vote against any DHS bill without restrictions on enforcement operations. The deadline to avert a shutdown is Friday.

YOUR PHONE CALLS TO THE SENATE ARE WORKING. KEEP CALLING.

202–224-3121

Three Democrats who previously broke with the party and voted with the GOP are now saying they will not vote for the bill. That’s enough for the bill to be unpassable right now.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Email your Representative and Senators before Jan 30. Ask them to "Adopt Sections 239 and 531 of the Senate LHHS Bill" to restore incremental funding and ensure timely grant awards at the NIH. Prevent a "grant drought" for our field this year.

The appropriations bill that includes NIH is being finalized.

The Senate bill includes a bipartisan amendment from Senators Capito (WV) and Baldwin (WI) limiting multi-year funding of grants.

The House version does not and OMB has issued a veto threat if the House includes such language.

Ultrafast Frame-Free Imaging of Neural Activity with Event Cameras Frame-based fluorescence imaging has long defined how neural activity is optically measured. This approach requires acquiring all pixels within an image, regardless of whether they carry meaningful ne...

For decades, imaging has forced the same trade-off:
Set a frame rate → sacrifice resolution or field of view to go fast.

We break that rule

Using an EVENT-BASED CAMERA, we record neural activity without frames. Signals are captured only where and when they occur:

Vicarious body maps bridge vision and touch in the human brain - Nature A mode of brain organization that connects visual and bodily reference frames may translate raw sensory impressions into more abstract formats that are useful for action, social cognition and semantic processing.
