I will be very interested to see what organizations that have already scrubbed/removed DEI content (National Academies, American Society of Microbiology -- see my stories) will do if these orders are deemed to be illegal and violate constitutional rights. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

From a source at NIH, some grants may be nixed because the investigator’s bio sketch mentions DEI-related activities, even if the science itself has nothing to do with it.

It’s important to remind people that RFK Jr. is in charge now. He is the medical establishment. This is all happening under his watch and it’s his job to keep kids safe.

More PhD programs stopping/slowing admissions. This is going to be a very stressful period for those hoping to enter research careers.

Words such as “health equity” are being replacing with vaguer terms, and 100 members sent a letter of protest to NASEM leaders.

Unfortunately, I’m not surprised—I asked them directly last year when his name first came up. Their response made it clear where they stood and what they planned to do (or not do). Like many in science, they’re prioritizing self-preservation at all costs.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

RFK Jr.’s confirmation “is a victory for Trump, and a clear message that Senate Republicans are willing to embrace pseudoscience in their unwavering deference to him. Americans’ health is in Kennedy’s hands.” Nicholas Florko on what happens next: theatln.tc/6bnEa4tQ

This is controversial, and needs to be said: Being a trainee doesn’t mean someone is a child. The paternalistic culture in Pediatrics is hurting the field. #medsky

So what do my HCW friends think about NYU Langone spending millions of dollars in the Super Bowl for an ad instead of say paying more to their workers or buy new equipment? Good use of resources? 🤔

Still thinking about the NIH, et al.: The largest employment sector in ME, MA, RI, CT, PA, MD, DE, MN, ND, SD, AZ, UT, ID, WA, and AK are hospitals and med centers. In VT, NY, NC, MI, IA, NE, NM, CA, and HI: public universities. For most of the rest of the country it's retail.

A shout-out to my #Yale colleague Jason Stanley's new book. Want to know why #Trump/#Musk are going after universities, whitewashing federal agencies' histories, taking down photos, etc.? This is what fascists do.

Three of the four Black quarterbacks that have won Super Bowls are still playing. Old enough to remember when they were still questioning whether Black folks were “cerebral” enough for the position.

It’s so interesting too because the shoeshiners in academia think that by staying quiet and not speaking out, they can protect themselves too. Y’all will be jobless by summer at the latest when that $9 BILLION of NIH money he is cutting off (illegally by the way since Congress controls that) stops
