🪰 folks! Despite Harvard lawsuit outcome, FlyBase NIH grant was not released. FlyBase now runs on the public, like NPR, PBS etc. If we don't step up, it can go away! Donations site on flybase.org homepage. Note: it links to IU stock center, but its for FlyBase, see instructions. pls give+share! 2/2

Objective Biotechnology was proud to sponsor the European Drosophila Research Conference in Alicante! 🚀 The Autoinjector was a huge hit, and we’re officially launched in Europe.
Alicante is stunning—rich history, walkable streets, and perfect weather. Highly recommend a visit! 🌞 #EDRC #Biotech

Really excited to share this milestone! It has been so fun to see this instrument evolve from the initial prototype in my and @suhasabk.bsky.social's labs to a commercial product. Congrats to the @objectivebio.bsky.social team!
🚚On Friday, Objective Biotechnology shipped its first commercial Autoinjector to San Francisco! After 8 iterations at 9 top U.S. research sites and 10K+ hours of engineering, we’ve built something truly special for the future of lab automation. Huge kudos to the team!👏 #biotech #robotics #innovation

157 House of Representatives members signed an amicus brief calling on the First Circuit to uphold a block on the NIH's planned cap on indirect cost reimbursements. Did your representative sign? In MN, only Angie Craig, Betty McCollum, and Kelly Morrison signed.

Go right now, don't wait, and read Harvard's response to the government's demands. Everyone needs to fight. Remember Columbia caving got them absolutely nothing back. You can see the gov demands from a link inside Harvard's response.

A hundred years ago, the average life expectancy was <50. Today, it is ~80.

What made the difference? Public Health. Public health, however, is not some magic entity happening in a vacuum - it requires people.

Without those people, there can be no Public Health. That serves no one.

Wake up.

Maybe it's a good time to remind everyone that 40% of US Nobel Prize winners are immigrants.

America benefits when we welcome global talent. When we block international scientists, we diminish our own future
