📢 The deadline for the BTSI award has been extended to June 23rd, so there's more time to submit your NEN-focused applications! Thanks to @NANETS1 & @CureNETs for sponsoring the award.

This is worse than many appreciate because it is not merely a delay. Many institutions such as mine are TERMINATING these otherwise active grants if the NoA is delayed by more than a month because they cannot afford to keep the grant supported personnel on payroll

🚨 Calling all early-career NET researchers!

The Basic/Translational Science Investigator (BTSI) Award—funded by @netrf.bsky.social in partnership with @nanets.bsky.social — a $100K, 2-year grant to support innovative NEN research. Apply by June 13th.

Science Under Threat in the United States: Research turns hope into reality Two scientists describe how an acute myeloid leukemia diagnosis underscores the need for continued federal support for research and access to care.

Life-saving treatments exist because of decades of research, but cuts to NIH-funded research put that progress at risk.

When the unthinkable happens, will the care we need still be there? We must protect this lifeline.

The cancellation of grants or abrupt changes to funding policies that may sound esoteric to the public […] can derail life-saving studies. Anna and casey greene

1/ In “Research turns hope into reality”, husband-and-wife @casey.greenelab.com and @annagreene.bsky.social describe the impact of a recent acute myeloid leukemia diagnosis for Anna, and how it “underscores the need for continued federal support for research and access to care.”

Last year, I was surprisingly diagnosed with AML. Attacks on science that we currently face threaten future scientific discoveries that can benefit individuals' health. This should scare us all. Read more about my story and thoughts on this below (with @casey.greenelab.com).

🚨 The Neuroendocrine Tumor Research Foundation is accepting letters of intent for neuroendocrine cancer-focused research projects! LOIs due March 18th. Reach out to me with questions.

As a quick reminder: AI doomerism is also #AIhype. The idea that synthetic text extruding machines are harbingers of AGI that is on the verge of combusting into consciousness and then turning on humanity is unscientific nonsense. 2/

Nobel Prize winner for mRNA vaccines discusses being demoted by UPenn Katalin Karikó, who is sharing the Nobel Prize in medicine for her work with mRNA vaccines, says she was previously demoted by the University of Pennsylvania for her research in that area.  “I…

"🙏🏿Lord please grant me the confidence to deny a brilliant woman professor and researcher tenure track, demote her, push her out of my school, to be the adversity that she had to overcome in life... and when she overcomes me and wins the Nobel prize, to roll in like I did something. Amen!"

Congratulations to the winners of the Nobel prize! I hope their stories, particularly KK's, force us to confront the misogyny, bias and assumptions about "impact" and "excellence" that very likely limit the recognition of similar innovations that could improve our world.

I had the chance to share some thoughts at the #USUKForum, and I spent a few minutes highlighting the importance of well-considered funder policies to drive progress.
