What we’re speeding rather quickly toward is why pay taxes to a government that uses funding as a retaliatory tool?
I'm appalled by the USDA's decision to pause funding to the University of Maine System.
This will hurt our farmers, halt critical research, and impact students throughout Maine.
Once again, our state is being targeted for retribution—all because our officials are standing up for the rule of law.

I thought the tone of the recent notifications from the NIH sounded off. They are AI generated. Are robots in charge now? That could explain a lot.

Someone (who clearly does not teach or write grants) decided to update the grants system for the University next month. This means all December grants are due the week after Thanksgiving which is also the end of the semester. I have 5 grants due Dec 6th + end of semester stuff. Make it make sense.

Despite still losing 1500 Americans a week, take-up of the updated COVID vaccine is lower than flu vaccine, even for those at higher risk. With lots of COVID & flu around, there is still time to get both jabs.

CDC doesn't yet have a Bluesky presence, so I'm sharing their Twitter post about my son JJ, whose sudden death in 2020 was likely caused by a "mild" influenza infection. Please get vaccinated ASAP to help prevent more deaths like JJ's. ❤️💉

I'm an immunologist working to understand why some bounce back from a mild infection while others become progressively ill. I specialize in Lyme disease and I'm running a clinical study at MIT developing predictive diagnostics so that we can better understand infection-associated chronic illness.
