"Just in that one state and focused on that one (albeit common) disease, the group had about 80,000 members."

16.05.2025 00:00 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0OMG I just saw your updated list. This is unbelievable, infuriating and so dumb. A mentor reminded us this morning to be very diligent about documenting what is unfolding at the moment and to focus on resilience. Thank you for all the work you have done and are doing to keep track of these cuts. 😰

A chocolate cake with red and white decorations and lit candles shaped as the number 75. Bold text reads: ‘The NSF Turns 75 Today. What has it done over the past 7 decades?’ The background is a celebratory red with a spray-paint texture.
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.

🧪 Q for the science community:
Are there lists/docs already out there for non-fed funding sources for those who do NSF/NIH/Dept of Ed/etc funded work that's now threatened?
For instance, one example with W. T. Grant Foundation: wtgrantfoundation.org/funding/rese...
Specific calls are welcome too!

Pause for a minute to appreciate the valiant Program Officers still at NSF, who are doing their utmost to preserve what they can. They’re in the stinking rotting belly of the beast, laboring on our behalf.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ to them
