Decades of rigorous and scientifically sound research have proven that vaccines do not cause autism. CDC’s decision to change language on its website reversing that finding is reckless & harmful.

Young scientists are often our strongest advocates. Thank you, Logan Beyer, for informing others about the value of health equity research. 🧪

The NIH called my health equity research ‘antithetical to scientific inquiry’
The NIH canceled Logan Beyer’s health equity research, saying it was “antithetical to scientific research.” That’s completely wrong, she writes.

Hubby: Your texts have gotten really long & formal, I think you need a break from grant writing
Me: No they haven’t…
Hubby proceeds to read several texts & after a couple “therefore, hence, refer to…” I’m like oh..😳
Maybe he’s right, it’s time to take a small break from grant writing! 😂

As a pediatric hematologist oncologist I’d like to remind y’all that federal funding for ALL childhood cancers combined is only 4% of overall cancer research funding.
CHILDREN with CANCER.
Who deserve every single chance they can get yet are shown over and over how little our society cares.

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.
