Been listening to the @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social Ezra Klein Show, and wowed by this episode that quotes my friend @johndoench.bsky.social about NIH progress reports! If my PO follows me, yes I'm working on my RPPR now! Just hope I can still get my Non-competing funding, please please🙏?

Hopefully this will backfire and stop future institutions from caving. The admin has now shown (as anyone with half a brain already knew) that appeasement won't save you.

The Attack on Science in the USA is so bad right now, this moderate independent was compelled to protest at @standupforscience.bsky.social BOSTON! Good turnout with my colleagues from @bostonu.bsky.social !

Wondering if your study section cancelled? I update this sheet daily. As of today, 56/124 study sections that should have met since Jan 2, 2025 have "not met as scheduled." docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

So sorry to learn of Scott Hawley's passing. I only had email communications with Scott and received some of his fly strains, but I was touched by his grace. When I wrote him about a sequencing error, he thanked me for reaching out instead of dismissing me as an inexperienced junior PI. RIP.

I hope Bluesky is a fun place to talk Science and share goofy posts too.
