Your yearly reminder to acknowledge the core facilities you use and their staff scientists in your papers. These scientists are a crucial part of the scientific ecosystem and to continue to exist they need tangible credit for their work. Plus their associated expertise adds credibility to your work.

I woke up with dread: NIH cuts, programs supporting underrepresented scientists cut, USAID cut, trade wars, govt workers cut, etc.
I made myself think of 5 things that I am grateful for.
My 5 things:
1. My kids

What are your 5?
