I need scientists 🧪 to *THINK*: Do you really believe *only* $8mil went to research w/ transgenic mice, one of the most common tools in modern biomedicine?
Or maybe fascists are targeting trans people everywhere they can, including research using animal models of gender affirming hormone therapy?

this is fricken amazing and the result of NIH-funded research!!!
A two-and-a-half-year-old girl shows no signs of a rare genetic disorder, after becoming the first person to be treated for the motor-neuron condition while in the womb.

I lost my job at the National Science Foundation yesterday, along with 167 of my colleagues, including some dear friends. This was the best job I've ever had, and I thought it would be my last. The PI community has been sympathetic and supportive, without exception. I will miss working for you.

@sbn-bsky.bsky.social has released a statement on current events. SBN DEI comm, of which I'm chair, wrote this statement to be people-first focused on the human impacts. I want to thank Peg McCarthy & the Exec Comm in quickly approving the document w/ few edits. This is why SBN is my "home" society.

Just saw this news. Ed Stricker is a big reason I'm a neuroscientist today. I will always be grateful for the journey he took his students on in Intro to Neuro at Pitt. www.ssib.org/web/memorial...

An explainer about how health research funding happens and why this NIH funding cycle shutdown matters: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
Opinion | I’m a health researcher. NIH’s pause on research grants could have a devastating cost.
This is a potentially devastating event — not just for the scientific community, but for all Americans.
