NIH races to spend its 2025 grant money — but fewer projects win funding Despite political obstacles, officials are on track to disburse all of the research funds allocated to US biomedical behemoth.

Staff members at the NIH seem to have done the impossible: spend the agency's $48 billion budget.

“Everyone has been rallying together to clean up the mess, but it’s a mess that did not need to be made,” an NIH program officer told me.

David Baltimore passed away this weekend. A pioneer of molecular virology who won the Nobel prize in medicine & physiology for his discovery of viral reverse transcriptase. This essay he wrote in 2018 reflecting of his 60yr career in science is a great read.

ICYMI: Vasculopathy occurs early in systemic sclerosis, but intervention strategies are lacking.

Colin Jamora & team reveal ANGPTL2 as an inducer of vasculopathy that drives cutaneous fibrogenesis in mice—mirroring SSc—and present a therapeutic approach: UAS03.

Corrupt. Dangerous. Deeply deeply damaging.

Impressive work following over two thousand volunteers for over two years. Both intervention arms (structured and self guided) showed improvements.
Thank you ‪@alzassociation.bsky.social‬ for your work.

Some sweet people have been sending physical cards and letters to the Bethesda Declaration signers. This is so kind and meaningful.

It would be GREAT if they received more. Cards can be sent to

Ian will share them with the signers.

It is a strange time when I think that a new policy from this administration makes sense and I actually support.
I miss the times where most notices made sense, though.

As Jay said, many of the #BethesdaDeclaration signers will meet with him on Monday. And oh boy are we prepared!

While not every signer was invited, we worked together and with our colleagues across #NIH to bring our concerns—and evidence to back them up.

Buckle up, this will be a long thread. 🧵

There is a rally on MONDAY at 4:30 PM to stand up for NIH. Please join.

Many NIH employees signed the Bethesda Declaration, objecting to the destruction of NIH. The Trump NIH Director asked the signers to meet. The rally follows that meeting, in support.

Congrats Pilar and Erin! Fantastic work. Always great to collaborate with you!

“On Not Betraying Our Trainees, Especially Now”

I won an Extraordinary Achievement Award from the Critical Care Assembly last month

Would be honored to see @alsobrooks.senate.gov on the growing list of signers!

Still appreciating the platform she provided for us at the #SickOfIt rally. Then, I wore a veil to hide my identity. Good to be unmasked!

Today, my NIH colleagues and I did something scary but really important. We spoke up about egregious harms we are seeing happen to research participants and public health through thoughtless and politicized policies at NIH. 🧵1/3
