I have to keep this deliberately vague, but this is a total disaster for academic research.

And imposing it so suddenly is just cruel. I’ve got friends scrambling to get back to the US before midnight tonight. Do you know how hard that is to do on 36 hours of notice?
Trump to impose $100,000 fee per year for H-1B visas, in blow to tech
The Trump administration said on Friday it would ask companies to pay $100,000 per year for H-1B worker visas, prompting some big tech companies to warn visa holders to stay in the U.S. or quickly return.

Four years in, and we have our first data release. These data will be good, but just wait until you get the avalanche of data from the subsequent releases.

One day you receive an NSF rejection and the next day you are working on another NSF proposal

Trying to do the right thing shouldn’t be this hard. I’m working on an IRB amendment to shift from written to verbal consent so Latine families can participate more comfortably—because THIS matters. But the back-and-forth with IRB feels endless. Doing the right thing shouldn’t be this time-consuming

8/8. So, if you’re feeling down about these attacks, I understand—I feel that way too. But just remember that they’re not attacking because your work doesn’t matter; they’re attacking *precisely* because it does. So, get some rest, connect with your people, and keep doing it.

ok tenured faculty. what advice do you have for pre-tenure professors who are expected to write/ get grants for tenure? is it too early to panic? delay clock? hoard startup? cry?
This looks like part of a massive multi-faceted attack on scientists and universities from the Trump admin.

They have cancelled funded federal grants, frozen NIH panels, promoted anti-scientific figures and conspiracy theorists like RFK Jr in positions of oversight.

This is just beginning…
This is only the beginning.

Two days ago I thought I was on the right path for getting tenure. Today, I don’t think I will ever get a grant again
