Has anyone received any relocation awards for internship? A friend is looking for some application examples. www.nationalregister.org/tools-servic...

Any #measles researchers wanna speak at the DC rally? #standupforscience @standupforscience.bsky.social

#Denver #Colorado #StandUpForScience Capitol Building Friday, March 7th 1pm-4pm

My crows? Counting

How it feels trying to carry on with my doctorate whilst academic funding and its infrastructure was just drop kicked into the sun

Hi all! Some really incredible people have put together a nationwide protest very quickly - they need financial support to make the DC and statewide rallies a success! here is the link to donate to the cause #standupforscience2025

I knew whatever winter bug is going around would come for me eventually…

We interrupt this broadcast to bring you a special report: our website has all OFFICIAL satellite rally locations listed. Our "walk out" for science option to get involved on March 7th was announced. But in the words of Gary Cole from Office Space, if you could donate (link on our site)...

NIH cuts are getting the press, but VA research is getting slashed too. What do we lose when VA research goes away? Here's some greatest hits: The nicotine patch, invention of the cardiac pacemaker, first successful liver transplant, development of the CAT/CT scan prospect.org/health/2025-...

Want to learn more about @standupforscience.bsky.social ? I spoke with three of the lead organizers for a Q&A you can read here: 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/stan...

doing therapy/research instead of giving up and getting a corporate job feels like the equivalent of building the community center instead of going the joja mart route in stardew valley

NIDA has announced it, but all the NIH summer internship programs are likely cancelled. Sorry college students interested in STEM jobs, sorry high school students looking at science 🧪 careers. Trump and Musk are cancelling your futures.

Things that have recently brought me joy in these times (share yours too??) 🤍

🚨 WANT TO HELP US STAND UP FOR SCIENCE? 🚨 Here's a little update on where we're currently at with the planning process! Is your state red or grey & you want to see an event happen? Fill out our volunteer form or share with a friend! airtable.com/app4h5wUssMG... #standupforscience2025

Thank you @ericrpedersen.bsky.social for your leadership and commitment to keeping important research moving forward.

I got over my millennial fear of the phone and called my Reps- the 5calls app made it super easy! 5calls.org/issue/nih-ns... #academicsky

I chatted with a program director at NIH for a half hour just now It's clear that the people who make American science happen are doing everything they can to keep making it happen in a very difficult environment They deserve our respect and gratitude

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Statement from Cannabis at @researchmj.bsky.social calling for more submissions on sexual and gender diverse groups, racial/ethnic minority samples, and studies focused on diversity, equity, inclusion, belongingness, discrimination, and social justice.

Cannabis, the flagship journal of the Research Society on Marijuana, is committed to publish high quality empirical research, including studies that focus on diverse populations and topics (e.g., sexual and gender diverse groups). See full statement below. www.researchmj.org/journal

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals. So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/4328LAD

The collective exhaustion is unreal

Yes because this works so well!!!! Let’s bring back DARE!!!!!

When I was a kid I wanted to be a doctor or scientist… Today I am studying to be a kind of both and I just wish the world valued it as much as I did when I was growing up.

Do others agree that February is the worst month or is it just me

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

Being a therapist is the weirdest job ever

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

I cannot stress enough that very many people are going to end up irreparably harmed and killed by these selfish idiots

A funny historical fact: if you look up where the top science happened around 100 years ago... it was Germany. I wonder what happened...

I have had a TON of people asking how they can help...here is what would help us the most right now: SHARE SHARE SHARE SHARE SHARE! Tell us why you #standupforscience2025! Send flyers to your colleagues and labs! Change your bluesky banner! Tell your professional orgs and departments!

I’ve been having a *week* however cancellations//delays keep hitting my calendar, thank you universe.

Sent a DM the other day like "Yeah, I'll help!" and now I'm co-authoring press releases for an honest-to-god nationwide science protest, like WHAT #standupforscience2025 #sciencenotsilence #scienceforall

What does "science for everyone" mean? Simply put, it affects all of us. #standupforscience2025 #sciencenotsilence We're here: www.standupforscience2025.org NIH economic impact: www.unitedformedicalresearch.org/nih-in-your-... USAID matters (strengthens communities): www.npr.org/2025/02/10/1...
