NIH funding supports the vast majority of all biomedical research in the United States. Virtually every advance in American medicine and biological science comes from NIH. This is a blow against American science.
Call Congress, 202-224-3121.
Call Congress, 202-224-3121.
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

Also want to highlight all the other amazing work being done at the PennMed Center for Health Justice. Aiming to center community voices in all the work we do, I could not be more proud to be part of this center. It brings me hope in these seemingly dark times & I'm excited to share our future work!

For the Center for Health Justice, hiring people with deep roots of their own in West Philadelphia is key to partnering effectively to support healthier communities.

Yes, there is a child health crisis in America. #medsky
It is not caused by vaccines or fluoride.
It *is* caused by:
- Poverty
- Inequity
- Lack of insurance
- Poor access
- Food insecurity
- Underfunded public health
- Insufficient mental health care
- Etc. etc.

As an Afro-Latine queer child of immigrants, since the election, I've felt somewhat lost. Serendipitously, I started reading Blood Over Bright Haven which has helped me process my emotions in an amazing way. Recommend for fans of steampunk/gaslamp fantasy (eg Fullmetal Alchemist) or HP #booksky

Hopping off the sinking twitter boat and excited to be here
I'm a PEM physician in Philly interested in environmental justice and community-centered research. Looking forward to seeing all the great things that come from this platform.
If anyone has any good starter packs, looking for suggestions!
