Trump officials take steps toward a radically different NSF
Efforts to shrink staff, budget, and focus have alarmed members of Congress
Another scoop from Jeff Mervis (@policyhound.bsky.social): NSF's ~1400 grant terminations have disproportionately affected PIs from groups underrepresented in science: women, racial & ethnic minorities, & those with disabilities. 1/3

Anyone could have predicted this. Columbia could fire or expel everyone who isn’t a white cis male and they’d still never get a penny of those grants back.

Tip for women in science:
Don't collaborate with men who are not allies in the fight against sexism (unless you have no choice, which happens often of course).
You may think it is worth it, but really, it never is. You will end up mistreated and your ideas likely erased.

If anyone has any experience with appealing terminated grants (either the process or successful strategies 😀), please DM me.
THANK YOU!

What happens in the brain when a stimulus enters consciousness?
We built a biophysical model of the cortex to zoom in to synaptic interactions and zoom out to whole-cortex neural dynamics during perception.
It revealed a key mechanism for ignition🧵...

A Vaccine For Pancreatic Cancer Continues To Show Promise
In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease had no relapse three years later.
90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.
