Why should the public care about the freeze on the NIH? Aside from the need for scientific pursuits to make our society better…
-For every dollar we invest in NIH research, there is a $2.5 return.
-Research dollars help fund universities that employ non-academics. (1/)

Hi Bluesky community! Does anyone have any recommendations for good outside fellowships/grants for PhD students in psychology/neuroscience who do interdisciplinary work? Thank you!

I've moved from X on here, but will still keep my X profile active to monitor any DMs or engagements. Glad to be on here for good, and to connect with other scientists!
