Together, this threatens to demolish the global scientific ecosystem in which scientists collaborate to solve planetary problems like pandemics, cancer and climate change. It is disruptive to new discovery and endangers the future of science.

Today, Standupforscience rallies will take place in dozens of cities in the US, Canada and Europe. Scientists unite to voice their concern over the recent major cuts in scientific funding, collective firing of early career scientists and unilateral reduction in funding for universities.

Trump 2.0: an assault on science anywhere is an assault on science everywhere US President Donald Trump is taking a wrecking ball to science and to international institutions. The global research community must take a stand against these attacks.

We, the board members of @rbscdb.bsky.social stand with all affected scientists and denounce actions to cut funding for science and scientific institutions anywhere. We refer to @natureportfolio.nature.com in their call for support. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
