Sorry if this seems precious, but as everyone at universities grapples w how to respond to multiple new, genuine crises, I think an underrated way we can help each other is to limit bullshit
Have a chance to act in a way that limits someone's emails & meetings abt something fairly trivial? Take it!

Thank you thank you thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Yesterday was incredible. Thank you for showing up across the world.
To our HUNDREDS of volunteers: WOW. You all are unbelievable. I am so proud to know you all and you should be so proud of what youโve accomplished.
To the core leadership team: you guys, we did it. I love you. Iโm so proud of you.
Whatโs next?
We are going to take a damn nap and then figure out our next steps.
Meanwhile, YOU are going to step up and be the change you want to see in the world. There is nothing stopping you from organizing at your school, work, hospital, state capital, etc. Yesterday was just the beginning, and YOU are whatโs next. How will you rise up?
Get up, dorks! Youโve got a world to change!
Thank you, all.

It is my understanding that when coffee is associated with good health outcomes, then that is a highly reliable causal study, but when coffee is associated with bad health outcomes there exists important confounding issues with the study.

What The NIH Cut To Indirect Cost Payments Could Cost Red States
The Trump administrationโs decision to cap how much NIH will pay for indirect costs on university research grants would cost 10 red states more than $1 billion.
Alzheimerโs disease is non-partisan. Cancer is non-partisan. Diabetes is non-partisan. This is a short-sighted policy that could cost thousands of jobs and set biomedical research progress back by years. Contact your local representatives and urge them to stand against this dangerous policy.

Federal judge halts Trump administration cuts to NIH research payments in 22 states
Attorneys general sued the Trump administration to block a NIH decision that would slash grant payments for research overhead
If you'd asked me a year ago, I might have said "arbitrary and capricious" sounded like fun.
Live and learn.
Today, "the rule of law" sounds a lot more appealing- and better for health research.

Taylor Swift holds a beaker, from her "Teardrops on My Guitar" video. I got this picture from labsafety.org. Taylor is wearing safety goggles.
Each of the 149 shows in Taylor Swiftโs Eras Tour generated about $31 million in local economic activity. Imagine suddenly and permanently losing 690 shows. The 15% indirect cost cap announced by NIH will deprive our communities of $21 billion in economic impact. #keepNIHstrong #science #episky

This is a promo picture for Superbowl 59, featuring the two starting quarterbacks Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs) and Jaylen Hurts (Philadelphia Eagles).
Each Super Bowl generates roughly $500 million in local economic activity. Now, imagine suddenly losing the equivalent of 42 Super Bowls. The new NIH 15% indirect cost cap will strip our communities of $21 billion in economic impact. #keepNIHstrong #science #episky #medsky #gobills
