Massive restructuring of the NIH is planned in order to create a brand new fake-science agency. 1. $47B NIH budget will split into $27B allotted for NIH (reduced from 27 institutes to only 8) 2. $20B for junk “ideology” based research. I am expecting taxpayer $ to be wasted on faux science. 🧪

All because they abhor DEI. Women already have to work extra hard to prove themselves and to make sure they are heard. We are regressing precipitously as a nation everyday. 🧪 #science www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

🧪The WH declares April as Cancer Control Month, affirming its commitment to cancer research. We see this BS while funding cuts hit home. Wayne State University lost 18 grants, worth $10m. Some impact cancer research. Bigger institutions are getting attention.This is nationwide. #science #cancer 🧫🧬

This is a big deal. On top or retaliatory tariffs on US goods.This could upend the luxury goods industry. China reveals how luxury goods are made, shipped to Europe, where they are marked up after adding the fancy logo. The cartoon is perfection. www.theroot.com/china-spills...

RFK Jr. claims that he can find THE cause of autism within a few months. When I hear someone claiming they have found THE cure for cancer, I have a 100 thoughts whirling in my head. Once misinformation takes flight it is so hard to refute it. Inaccuracy on multiple levels. Brandolini’s law is 🎯🧪🧬

🧪Bobby says that he’ll find the cause of autism by Sept. It is April. Do I laugh or do I cry? It took me 5 yrs of trial/error to get enough SOLID data for my dissertation and 2 MORE yrs to publish my PhD work. Tell me you don’t know how research works w/o telling me you don’t know how it works.
