My ode to Curiosity Driven Research www.statnews.com/2025/04/03/b...

We have an open 4-year PhD position in the Slotte lab at Stockholm University, to investigate genomic signatures of selection associated with pollination mode shifts. Full ad: su.varbi.com/en/what:job/... Apply by April 22, 2025 via the University application portal (link). Please repost! 🧪

To help people understand the importance of NIH, share what you’ve used their funding for (in easily understandable terms). I’ll start: my NIH postdoc funding helped me develop and test AI tools that could identify skin cancer across diverse skin tones.

In fiscal year 2024, the report found, NIH awarded more than $36.9 billion to researchers, supporting more than 408,000 jobs and generating over $94.5 billion in new economic activity nationwide. news.harvard.edu/gazette/stor...

Thank you @wesa.fm for covering the fun & inspiring @standupforscience.bsky.social event in Pittsburgh!

#standupforscience pittsburgh ran into @jeremymberg.bsky.social!

Long-time GSA members & genetics experts Philip Hieter & Hugo Bellen wrote an article on leveraging the power of model organism research to diagnose & develop new therapies for rare diseases. Today, on #RareDiseaseDay, you can read it online: buff.ly/YHlPDn5 1/2🧵

GSA joined more than 600 organizations to urge the Senate & House Appropriations Committees to prioritize robust funding for NIH and preserve existing protections to NIH indirect cost reimbursement for FY 2025. Read the @researchamerica.bsky.social letter: buff.ly/4h3hPJ7

Two open positions for a lab manger and a laboratory technician. Applications from displaced federal employees are welcome. Lab manager position: www.ugajobsearch.com/postings/410... Lab tech position: www.ugajobsearch.com/postings/391... Please email zlewis@uga.edu if you have questions

Historically, funding for NIH has enjoyed widespread bipartisan support, and this is KEY to maintain. Folks can use Rep. Deluzio's (R-PA-17) example to contact your senators & reps, whether the issue is indirects or supporting the upcoming NIH budget asks (FY25 and FY26).
