Clear and thoughtful FAQ by DFCI colleague Sasha Gusev on the recent NIH and NSF grant cuts - highly recommended reading! #medsky #oncsky

The AACR is deeply concerned that the Administration’s recent actions are threatening NIH and its mission to accelerate progress for patients with cancer and other diseases that afflict millions of Americans. Read our statement: https://buff.ly/4gRXNB8

"Ms. Baldwin said in a statement[...] 'Make no mistake, their efforts to rob Peter to pay Paul means crushing families’ hopes and dreams of having cures.'[...] The NIH has undergone considerable turmoil in recent days, with two high-ranking officials announcing sudden departures." #oncsky #medsky

US science is under attack ‘Americans who value the spirit of discovery — and eagerly await new ways to confront disease, strengthen our economy and improve the quality of human life — need to issue a strong outcry.’ www.nytimes.com/2025/02/14/o...

1/ Why this is🚨? My colleagues, collaborators, and I are funded by #NIH to bring the most promising medicines to people with life-threatening illness How does this work? www.science.org/content/arti... #oncsky #lcsm

Research universities are often the largest employers in their region. They are often the primary health care providers to communities. This funding shift will not only reduce US research leadership, it will put working people out of work and reduce healthcare access.

"This moment is a test. How should our community react? The immediate result has been confusion, disruption, and disorientation, but the response cannot be dictated by fear or resignation. There is a need for focus, strategy, and—indeed—hope"

Moving defense of childhood #vaccines by Vanderbilt vaccine expert Kathy Edwards in JAMA. Stunning that so many people fear the tools that prevent children from dying and being maimed, rather than the pathogens that resurge when vaccine use declines. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
