Because I am here for PIs, patients, and the United States' healthcare system. This is my oath. #NIH strong. Sign the #BethesdaDeclaration. #defendresearch #defenddata

#NIH hearing on FY2026 tomorrow, 6/10/25, at 10 AM ET. 🍿

Um... look. At the timing of this. #NIH, how do we keep up with this?

This week's sourdough. #bakingsky

Hey, #arm2025 attendees, @josh-caplan.bsky.social , @academyhealth.bsky.social , and @aaronecarroll.bsky.social , I made the #hspr strarter pack last year. Here are great people and orgs to follow. Enjoy Twin Cities. Still affected by fed travel limits. #hspr

Feeling burnout from working overtime to keep the government functioning under demoralizing conditions? Exhausted from job hunting and competing with hundreds of overqualified candidates? Find community, comfort, and connection at this week’s NIH Vigil! 10 am Saturday, Med Center Metro!

Happy cishet men fragility awareness month! Here's a playlist to celebrate. 🏳️‍🌈🌈🏳️‍⚧️⚧️

"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a socialist... Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me." —Martin Niemöller #resist

It's Pride Month. The best thing I'll do is honor Jonathan Joss' memory by promoting kindness and love. There was no argument. A neighbor committed murder on two unarmed and innocent men holding each other as they grieved their dog's death. Resist in every capacity you can.
