Do you think polyvagal theory could be applied to autism in that the nervous system may not be fully developed?

White House orders government DEI employees to be placed on leave | CNN Politics Employees in any federal diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility offices will be placed on paid administrative leave “effective immediately,” according to a post from White House press secretar...

DEI programs were created to give everyone who meet objective standards a fair shot at serving our country. Diversity has changed America for the BETTER. Rolling back these programs and offices with an executive order is completely disgraceful.

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

My NIH study section that was to meet tomorrow was one of those canceled. This represents many months of work by the applicants and by the NIH staff and reviewers. Devastating is the correct word.

The panic you're seeing on social media about this reflects how critical NIH funding is for most scientific research in the US, and relatedly the funding of universities, healthcare systems, and research organizations. Health spending constitutes 18% of GDP. NIH funding is deeply enmeshed in it.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
