The Trump administration plans to eliminate the EPA’s scientific research arm and lay off more than 1,000 chemists, biologists, and other scientists.

Facing my own accommodations negotiation right now and feeling very vulnerable and defeated. This is exactly the scenario I published about two years ago. A link to my favorite publication so far: www.cambridge.org/core/journal... #disability #workpsych

Higher education will never be the same. Universities will have to re-craft entire budgets because of this. I became a doctor because I truly believe in the mission of science and discovery (and teaching!) This will have generationally bad ripple effects.
⚠️ Effective Monday 2/10/25, NIH indirect rate capped at 15%. Applies to existing & future grants.

—> Deep budget cuts & program closures coming to a university near you.

Is this the break the glass moment for university administrators who have been silent so far about the attack on science?

Recently had an article published in Work & Stress! In it, we study stressors, energy, and sleep in sole working moms. We found different effects at the daily and between-person levels. I'd tag my co-authors but they're not on bluesky yet 😭 Check it out!

OSHA immediately reduced workplace deaths by 2/3rds. The class divide in the country has grown so large that we really have people out here saying "idk, do we care about workplace safety?" because they and their children don't work, especially not a hazardous job.
BREAKING: Republican Congressman Andy Biggs has introduced a bill to abolish OSHA.

The entire text of the bill reads "The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 is repealed. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is abolished."
