This is a program for teenagers with serious disabilities who are finishing high school and transitioning to their next steps in life. Trump just axed it, effective immediately, in the middle of the night, with no notice.

If you could tell the general public 3 things about how science has been impacted this week, what would they be? (I’m making a flyer.)

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Open access paper showing evidence that typical bilingual language development follows a trajectory similar to monolingual development. Nice to see longitudinal data from a larger cohort (n = 604). #SLPeeps

I'm on my university's tenure and promotion committee, and I spent half the day yesterday discussing the cases of scholars whose brilliant, groundbreaking, and life-saving work was made possible by federal research grants.

Today’s favourite emoji is the raised, closed fist ✊ also known as the ‘Resist’ symbol/gesture. The symbol shows solidarity, and has been used in justice-oriented political movements and uprisings since at least 1910. (It opposite is the open-palm ‘roman salute’ used by facists since 1919)
