Thinking about devastating cuts to NSF: US gov-funded science has been the engine upon which most of the tech wealth was generated. But the oligarchs (currently hoarding much of that $) think it’s their own brilliance & not the accident of standing close to the scientific engine that made them rich.

I have a very smol starter pack of resource accounts. It probably needs to be updated since I made it back when Bluesky was like half as active ❤️ Let me know if you're a resource provider and I will add!

1. Whenever you see really vicious and widespread "spontaneous" attacks on scientific findings that challenge powerful economic interests, you can be assured that corporate lobbyists have been busy behind the scenes. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Amidst the general chaos, I forgot to mention the 2nd volume of Graphic Anatomy (Cuore) just came out! www.beccogiallo.it/negozio/grap... It was a pleasure working with the team at #GraphicMedicine Italia and exploring this fascinating organ ♥️ Here are some of my favorite pages #scicomm #sciart

Some of the amazing medical illustrators who worked at the CDC are gone. “If human-to-human transmission of the avian flu happened tomorrow, and the agency wanted to hold a press briefing in its studio, they don’t have a full-time employee who can operate the sound.”

this was also the team that worked on the ebola and zika public health campaigns. this is is a huge loss of skill and experience for medical and scientific communications.

The CDC illustration team that created the infamous "spiky blob seen around the world," this SARS-CoV-2 illustration, was fired yesterday. Call your congressfolks. Save science. #medicalillustration #SciArt

Scary. Mayday. The Museum of the American Indian, the Blacksonian. A lot of cultural treasures of nonwhite peoples the government has been protecting are under threat.

Could an AI make completely unnoticeable adjustments, repeatedly shifting the same label back and forth by one pixel? DIDN'T THINK SO

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

I created two NOAA infographics for my senior project at #UGA. So far still visible to the public, but with this administration censoring science and gutting #NOAA, I hope they don’t disappear… #SaveNOAA #SciArt #ClimateScience

I worry that the focus on NOAA's weather predicting value is ignoring the millions of other ways NOAA researchers enrich communities and local economies. There are no oysters without NOAA. There are no blue crabs without NOAA. NOAA trains teachers. NOAA is the lifeblood of coastal communities.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Recap on the current US science situation, it seems like: All fed funding still paused NIH study sections paused NSF grants paused for a year Colleges pausing grad school signups I'm trying incredibly hard not to be doomerist but it seems like our jobs are about to be unsustainable. Let's discuss 🧪
