Hearing about more dedicated public health professionals being let go and will re-iterate to any MD/DO with clinical interest in outpatient pediatrics HMU. We would be happy to have you.

Finally got all my vaccines updated! Having all three at one go is no fun. If you see this, it’s a reminder for you to get all yours done too!

Your friendly neighborhood librarian here...buy physical copies of your favorite books, especially challenged or banned books. Preferably from small local merchants. That's all; carry on. #Read #BookSky #Resist πŸ“š

Introducing Pan, sorry we are late for #caturday!

All that effort, time, and money down the drain.

Make no mistake. This is an all-out attack on health in America. Not only is the EIS vital to controlling infectious disease; it was where a remarkably high fraction of our public health leaders received formative training and experience. www.statnews.com/2025/02/14/t...

Penn State has halted submission and *acceptance* of NIH grants pending the resolution of the overhead rate cut. This lost time will never be recovered. The economic cost to Pennsylvania is enormous and the cost to humanity immeasurable.

What made America great? Per www.phc.edu/chancellors-..., some reasons include the best technology and medical care available. Guess what? Cutting funding for medical and scientific research - is NOT going to make America great again.

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them β€” β€œthey’re studying the spit of lizards?!” β€” remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic. globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

🚨 Revised request for scientist friends who want to do something to help 🚨 Help me find scientific professional societies with significant numbers of US members so I can approach them about a sign-on letter. What societies are you a member of? Send me names, links, etc. DMs open. πŸ§ͺπŸŒŽπŸ¦‘

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

#ohmygod mum! #wtf are you doing??!
