If I study anxiety via threat-biased attention, the word "biased" gets me flagged. You can't design a study of humans without using at least one of the terms on the banned list, which means that biomedical, brain, social science research is now on ice in the USA

I am a sex researcher and federal PO's have warned us about this search term for decades. It is not related to the new DEI, it has just always been the case to ensure nothing related to sexual health is funded unless it pushed abstinence.
I bet you get some good ones in there. Einstein.
the disability one bothers me in particular here—it’s a state of vulnerability that awaits each of us at some point in our life and we already don’t do right by it
I hope that every single person who gets their grants knocked back because of this sues the hell out of the gov because if you don't, research and scientific progress is dead.

This is just beyond stupid. This country is beyond any help.

Good luck with those.
oh i am getting hysterical at this point.
😢
BTW, guessing a lot of mathematics research will get flagged as DEI related if your proposal happens to mention word "equality" or "inequality."
We are living through the STUPIDEST time line.

"Virtually all grants funded by the Biden administration mentioned gender ideology" etc

"enhancing diversity" of represented species. Is that a puzzle lover's attempt to promote clozes in scientific journals?
Privately funded interests can fund those, exhausting the resources of "the enemy" while making scientists who like food go to whoever can pay.
Without government funding, reputable scientists are forced to work with those guys if they want to pay rent.
i think trump is an agent saboteur, paid by russia or china bc no man can be this fucking dumb
We would have had universal healthcare in the 60s in idiots didn't have it out for black people so much. 😒

Still,seeing it fully laid out like this...
How it is so reminiscent of some of the worst times in the past...how current events are rhyming with history...
Staying steady and being hopeful in these dark times, it is going to take a lot.
"Historotically, research on the blood-brain barrier has focused on how much it excludes some compounds from entering parenchyma of the brain."
News organizations do this all the time, prepare in advance.
You can't use the word women. So if women were a part of your study, or even mentioned but not studied-BOOM
You're flagged.
I notice that men are not on that list
Very Orwellian (a cliche that gets thrown around a lot but this really hits the target)
That’s why Fuckface wants to dismantle all education, research, healthcare & welfare
Who has time to stop a tyrant if you are too busy trying not to die?

Also, what about the first amendment?
Appreciate your work and dedication.
My Grandmother from the deep segregated South of Alabama born 1912. Told us to never trust white people period. She said you can be friends with them but never trust them… And she’s never lied.

Essentially, they’ve shut down the entirety of human medical research.

This essentially makes all double-blind research impossible. You've gotta be kidding me. 😤
Like just using synonyms? Or which would not normally be up to academic standards but which are the best that can be done.
Then just do the study properly?
