Deaths from heart disease down 75%, that’s NIH.

Deaths from stroke down 75%, that’s NIH.

HIV/AIDS no longer a death sentence, that’s NIH.

99% of FDA approved drugs in the last decade, that’s NIH.

Please show this video to anyone who doesn’t understand why the NIH is so important.

I had such an amazing visit to #LehighBIOE. Beautiful campus and so many great people! Thanks so much to @thechowlab.bsky.social for hosting and @pashucklab.bsky.social and @tomasgf.bsky.social for showing me a great time!
Fantastic #LehighBIOE seminar by @chasecornelison.bsky.social today! Really enjoyed learning about your lab’s latest work towards neuronal regeneration. Thanks so much for visiting! @umassamherst.bsky.social @lehighengineers.bsky.social @tomasgf.bsky.social @pashucklab.bsky.social

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

I'm excited to use my first post here to share our recent paper! We used in silico, in vivo, and in vitro methods to show that interstitial fluid flow plays a role in tissue damage after spinal cord injury. The full article is available here: aiche.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
