Since Australia this month barred children under 16 from using social media, parents around the world have been debating whether similarly tough action is needed in their own countries.

The commitments in the SAFE Labs Handbook.

A new community-driven lab handbook for reducing conflict and creating more positive and equitable work environments gets strong support from a survey of 200 researchers.

Vaccines don't cause autism. What does? Scientists say most brain changes that contribute to autistic traits occur before birth.

Vaccines don't cause autism. What does? Mostly genes.
The number of people diagnosed with autism as screening has improved and the definition of autism has been expanded.

STUDY: Denmark tracked over a million children for 21 years, and found vaccines linked to zero extra cases of autism, asthma, or 48 other conditions.

Vaccines are safe, effective, and the best way to eradicate preventable disease. Period.

Wonder doesn’t flinch. It’s our compass pulling us toward curiosity, creativity It reminds us: #science & #discovery are good. Here’s a moment that stirred mine: a new PI(3,4)P₂ probe illuminating the cell membrane & endosomes. Marvel with me. Captured on #FluorescenceFriday for #MicroscopyMonday

Wow, so beautiful!!!! What cell is this? And the name of the probe? What type of microscope did you use for imaging?

All of NIH funding to Northwestern University is frozen. This pause includes noncompeting approved funding, new and competing grants with fundable scores. No reimbursements for money already spent have been received since March. This situation is rarely reported so please Please get the word out!

Experts Call NIH Budget Cuts an 'Apocalypse' for Science The reductions target indirect costs that cover administrative and equipment costs.

I have been talking to the media, Time, Fortune, NBC, etc., to explain how the onslaught on science and NIH will impact the health of all Americans. Everyone knows someone who has cancer, heart disease, or depression. Spread the word about how cutting science impacts all.

A single neuron (white) shown with 5,600 of the axons (blue) that connect to it. The synapses that make these connections are shown in green. The cell body (central core) of the neuron is about 14 micrometers across.

Earlier this year in Science, researchers generated a nanoscale-resolution reconstruction of a millimeter-scale fragment of human cerebral cortex, giving an unprecedented view into the structural organization of brain tissue at the supracellular, cellular, and subcellular levels. scim.ag/3BjR7xa
