These grants survived intense scientific competition and scrutiny by expert peer scientists. It’s a sham to suggest they are unworthy. Pure bigotry to revoke them.

Nevada, do better! This kind of discrimination is unacceptable.

"The silence with which many of us and our institutions are meeting this moment must be challenged" Thank you @jama.com for stating this. The earlier (and some ongoing) silence from academic organizations & institutions prior to the NIH cuts was deafening and disheartening. #standupforscience

Middle-aged ♀️(of the GTA & Montreal): usually #science doesn't give a sh** about us, but this study does! Consider taking part. It's fun and you can see your 🧠

For the people who used to ask 'Why do you have to be so political?' I hope that it's now obvious why. Healthcare is political. Housing is political. Education is political. The air we breathe, the water we drink —it's all shaped by policy and power. Ignoring that is a political choice.

Another crazed change from the Trump Administration: removing the NIH No-cost extension form

Trans people deserve respect, happiness, protection, healthcare, basic human rights. Those who dehumanize and demonize trans people are hateful tyrants.

This is our world now.

Even in our darkest periods, leaders emerged to fight back. Black History is American History

The reckless assaults on DEI are not only morally wrong, they will irreversibly undercut science, technology, healthcare, and our economy. “Our country is quite literally hobbling ourselves by canceling these programs” - Dr. Bhalla @needhibhalla.bsky.social www.science.org/content/arti...

The entire archive of CDC datasets can be found here. HUGE shoutout to data archivists- this work is important 👏🙌🏻 archive.org/details/2025...

NIH’s Sex as a Biological Variable policy has been removed. We need voices now.

The entire website for the NIH Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) is very nearly stripped bare. This is so, so devastating. orwh.od.nih.gov/research/fun...

Exactly!!
