Friends, if you have the means to donate to a local food pantry financially via online giving, I highly encourage you to do that. But I don’t want to discount the importance of actually showing up at the pantry, even if it is just to drop off food. (1/5)

Strong doom scroll and dumpster fire vibes lately, so here's a pic of Mandy cat in full roar after seemingly taking out Rosie dog*.

*No animals were harmed in the making of this image. Mandy and Rosie were both sleepy and Mandy is mid-yawn.

My competing renewal application was not reviewed last week. 🤬😭

A huge shout out to you and all reviewers of the cancelled NIH study sections. You all did the tremendously hard work of review. As time passes meetings will be even more challenging. Thanks for your service - we appreciate you!
Welp. Thanks to the Republican gov shutdown I have a bunch of hours back in my week due to a NIH study section not meeting.

These poor applicants. They will be waiting week by week for government to reopen and to find out what will happen to their grant application.

Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.
The entire HR department at the CDC is gone. Everyone at the IRB, which makes sure studies are conducted ethically and rigorously, and the ethics office, which oversee conflicts of interest for CDC leaders and advisory committee members, were also let go.
