Hi, I'm def interested. Funding situation is like

Trump's EPA now says greenhouse gases don't endanger people The Trump administration wants to reverse a 2009 EPA finding that greenhouse gases endanger people. The finding is the basis for much of the United States' climate change regulations.

Trump EPA is dead wrong. Scientific evidence that #climatechange harms humans is overwhelming! @ipbes.net Nexus Assessment says:

NIH: The quiet engine of science is being dismantled And what you can do

"Federal research is the quiet engine behind the treatments, vaccines, and tools that keep us healthy. Americans are now getting at least 5,500 fewer research questions answered."

Bravo, friend! So well done. We can't just switch off what inspires us, especially when it is under attack.

Happy 4th of July!

Casual reminder that the most traditional way to celebrate is to overthrow a tyrannical government and start a new one from scratch.

This photo of Oz, RFK, Makary, Prasad and bhattacharya is dark.

The perfect merger of “respectable, evidence-based medicine” with rank equals and grifters, all for political power.

Anyone who enabled these men in any way owns this moment too.

Today I’m leading 152 House Democrats in challenging Trump's devastating cuts to life-saving NIH research grants. Congress—not Trump—controls federal spending.

Trump must do his job, “faithfully execute” the laws and stop violating the Constitution to undercut public health.

Iran Join Rick as he explores the most surprising and fascinating land he's ever visited: Iran. In a one-hour, ground-breaking travel special on public television, you'll discover the splendid monuments of...

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

Nothing really new here but another account of the imposed demise of American science.

Apes. Together. Strong.

I hope y'all are proud of this. You really should be.

Old conspiracy peddler with zero medical training replaces vital public health advisors with charlatans who will simply agree to whatever he says.

Fixed it for you.

@npr.org once again, your headline sucks. You need to note that he just emplaced a panel of vaccine deniers.

Put it in the headline. For the love of god. It’s really not this difficult.

And they're all science denying lunatics that are going to kill people.

NPR, it's time to start saving democracy instead of being fascism's stenographer.

FlyBase needs your help!

Because of recent changes to government funding, the NIH grant that supported FlyBase has been "terminated." flybase.org

The Continuing Crisis, Part XV: The Horrendous Trump Budget

The administration’s budget proposal is a disaster in so many ways, but it is most certainly a direct assault on US science.

Nothing like it has ever been seen before, and it means that we will have voluntarily stepped aside from a leading role in the scientific progress of the entire human race.

“Out Of His Depth,” “Sold His Soul,” “Clueless”: NIH Staffers Speak Out About Director Bhattacharya Widespread dissatisfaction over the NIH’s “continuous free fall” has people speaking out.

NEW: Important Context spoke with a dozen people working at NIH about Director Jay Bhattacharya.

The descriptions were universally unflattering, painting the health economist as ineffectual, dishonest, ideological, arrogant, and uncommitted to science.

The MAHA Report Cites Studies That Don’t Exist The Trump administration’s “Make America Healthy Again” report misinterprets some studies and cites others that don’t exist, according to the listed authors.

ummmmm...fake sources, mischaracterization of findings, made up research studies doesn't sound like "Gold Standard Science" to us.

But what do we know? We are just a lowly, grassroots community of the world's leading scientists. 🐸☕
