From the FT news feed on UN resolution today. Looking at the list of counties who the US sided with... We've lost a long-standing friend. The US is absolutely on the wrong side of history. A once proud country now brought low, in just a matter of weeks. People voted for this with eyes wide open.

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...

Elon has a medical device company that owes it's entire existence to NIH funded neuroscience research. But, unlike the real men of means who are advancing the field by supporting research, he hasn't contributed to any biomedical research that doesn't benefit him personally

On changes to #NIH indirect rates, there is a law in place that prohibits NIH from making such changes without the approval of Congress. See Division D, Title II Section 224 of The Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law No: 118-47) grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

This will completely cripple all major universities and bring daily operations to a grinding halt. This makes no sense. It will do so much damage. No one would do this with the intention of actually going through with it. It’s a power play

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

The NSF is the US engine of basic science discovery and technology innovation. This decision is a gift to our overseas competitors.

Research plan has gone from 14 pages to 13. That's progress! Unfortunately the NIH has gone from 27 institutes to zero

Is anybody else out there using Deepseek? I've been using it- it is very slow, probably because of so many users they weren't expecting. It is very good for programming logic. In my hands it is at least as useful as Claude, though Claude is faster. Anybody got opinions on this?

This is a deeply unserious take. RFK Jr. has been falsely claiming not to be activax for two decades. In fact, he’s been falsely claiming not just to be provaccine, but “fiercely provaccine,” since at least 2014. I have the receipts, as I’ve been debunking his antivax nonsense since 2005.

This is truly an abomination. "HHS Formally Debars EcoHealth Alliance, Dr. Peter Daszak After COVID Select Reveals Pandemic-Era Wrongdoing" There is not a shred of evidence that anything EHA did resulted in SARS2. Not a single thing. oversight.house.gov/release/brea...
