RFK Jr. said multiple times during his house and senate hearings today that no scientists have been fired from federal agencies. Our reporting has shown that hundreds, if not thousands, of scientists have been let go from NIH/CDC/FDA

Super excited to celebrate the successful dissertation defense of Dr. Alyssa Kniffin!
As I have said repeatedly, the impacts of all this are simple: people will die.

@ebi.embl.org:
Many scientists are worried that vital biomedical data housed in U.S. government databases is at risk.
Which aspects of NCBI are mirrored on EMBL-EBI?
Do you plan to back up more U.S. data?

The CSR comm I'm on just pulled all Diversity F grants from the current review cycle. These apps are reviewed alongside (and by the same criteria) as all other F grants. So, instead of helping these trainees, they will actually be punished by having their grant reviews delayed at least 1 cycle !?!?
So disappointing.
This account is for sharing info with US scientists, both extramural and intramural to NIH, about attacks on science in the US.
Education is power, and we can help advocate for science and medicine together. πͺπ§ͺ
We are a team of NIH people. Please ask us questions you might have.
I would love to be included!
