Just out of the oven and it seems a little wet, really hoping it thickens as it cools!

If red state schools accept this we are going to get a two-tiered system of higher ed. One set of states will be based in empirical reality and the other will be subject to the whims of a conspiratorial movement that is increasingly detached from facts.

(1/10) Weβre excited to share our new preprint (doi.org/10.1101/2025...), which uncovers the spatiomolecular landscape of the human nucleus accumbens (NAc), by integrating snRNA-seq with Visium spatial transcriptomics across 10 control donors. π§ #NAcLIBD #snRNAseq #10xVisium
From yesterday: I talked with a bunch of NIH employees about what it's like inside the assault on government science, and how they feel about the potential for a shutdown. Spoiler, they're basically for it.

Over the next few days we will be highlighting articles from this issue. Let us know which one you want to see covered first.
I love that vision!
Everybody who fell for the Harper's Letter or all the hand-wringing about "uncivil" students on the left, congratulations. You built this. You own this. And fuck you for being the useful idiots these fascists needed to launder their dismantling of academic freedom.
When Campus Reform and Turning point came after professors and created the professor watchlist, administrators didn't pay attention..Now they are being fired and attacked. Maybe institutions should have done more to protect academic freedom....
This point cannot be over-emphasized enough. When I left the FBI in June, I said that if the destruction stopped that day, it would take a decade to repair. Talking now to friends still there, I think I was being too optimistic. We are witnessing the self-immolation of a great country.
Absolutely, itβs delightful how enthusiastic he is to share his knowledge!
Thatβs how it is with my 18-yo Mech Engineering major son now. Heβs teaching me how to use CAD software.
Yes, I often say something like βoh, tell me more about that!β Very similar to approaches I sometimes take to draw out students :)
I love that their instinct is to teach!
I appreciate that this is a real issue, but I promise not a problem in my house! Iβm just joking, my kids donβt doubt my expertise and they have many highly accomplished women in their lives.
UC Davis is hiring! A tenure-track assistant professor of psychology, in human cognition or cognitive neuroscience #psychjobs recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF07300
One of my favorite things right now is when my 10-yo tells me something he learned at school, I act like Iβm not really familiar, and then he teaches it to me. He just gave me a great lesson on prime vs composite numbers. At some point heβs going to wonder how I can possibly be a science professor.
Iβll be blunt: no respectable media outlet should be providing a platform for Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo.
He is nothing but a factory for anti-science propaganda. He has nothing of worth to convey to the public.
This should be a bigger story. A government official had the YouTube channel of a private citizen shut down bc he didnβt like what that citizen was saying. This administrationβs version of free speech is a joke.
Felt like a pie chart was in order.
Number of mass shooters since 2018: 4197
% of mass shooters since 2018 that were transgender? 0.095%
% of mass shooters that were cisgender: 99.905%
What if scientists hadnβt waited until this point to speak about politics
Every time I see a headline like this, my brain just shouts
Like what if scientists hadnβt sat around silently watching everyone around them get attacked
Maybe the fight on campus would have gone differently
Dear people who are saying that the CDC directors who quit yesterday should have βstayed and foughtβ,
With all due respect, you do not grasp the magnitude of the problem of RFK Jr.
He is asking them to do unethical and immoral things that will actively harm the people of the United States. 1/3
We have finally navigated the endless red tape and gotten the donation site to support the US FlyBase groups up and running.

Read this.
In this political climate, it is our duty as scientists to collectively mobilize, reveal the deceit & the malicious misrepresentation of science happening here.
This is why we have op-eds, letters of dissent, petitions & public statements.

BREAKING: Trump wants to illegally cut off $15 billion in lifesaving NIH research.
Research to cure cancer, Alzheimer's, and so much more is on the line.
These people are LYING about waste, fraud, and abuse at NIH to justify attacking medical researchβwe all need to say so.
