Trump’s HHS put me on “non-disciplinary” admin leave today. This was retaliation for speaking up. Moves like this are designed to silence us. Let’s not let.

I guess I am hitting a nerve, because they just put me on admin leave.

Last year at @sfn.org I ran a workshop on "Opening the File Drawer" with Ben Kolber, Stacey Winham, Paul Sternberg, & Alex Freeman (@alexandrafreeman.bsky.social).

We've shared the resources that we compiled for that workshop in this new paper. ❤️

Science projects are designed & funded on the scale of years, so what happens if you need to finish prematurely? @mhagenauer.bsky.social &co discuss solutions for quickly documenting partially finished projects & publishing ‘as you go’ in an uncertain environment @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4ovd1jH

Publication bias continues to skew academic literature. In our new @plosbiology.org article, we outline actionable steps for journals, funders & researchers to ensure all results—not only “positive” ones—are valued. A roadmap for more reliable science: journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

IMO, tackling our bias against null studies is essential for improving the culture of science.

We want high-quality science,

BUT we evaluate research and researchers more on the outcome of their work (“positive” findings, novelty, etc.) than the process by which those results were obtained.

No publicar todos los resultados de investigación, incluidos los "negativos" es un problema que tenemos que afrontar juntos... @scurry.bsky.social explica mucho mejor que yo lo que contamos en nuestro último paper. @plosbiology.org
Let's get negative about scholarly publishing – a new paper (first in a long time for me!) on proposals to tackle the problem of publication bias that emerged from a NINDS workshop held in May last year.

"Ending publication bias: A values-based approach to surface null and negative results"

Paper out today in PLoS Medicine by many of us who would like to see publication bias reduced or eliminated.

Especially happy that Registered Reports got shout-outs.

Null & negative results ≠ failure. They’re essential—but still sidelined.

Proud to co-author this @plosbiology.org paper tackling systemic bias & calling for culture change.

ECRs pay the highest price for this biased culture!

There are currently 11 acting Institute and Center directors at NIH and this will add another. Two more and the majority of these positions will be vacant.
Hearing from multiple sources that Jon Lorsch is stepping down as NIGMS Director to become Deputy Director for Extramural Research, a job he has held in an acting capacity for some time.

This is an awesome primer for peer review and also a helpful guide to get people thinking about the quality of their own experimental design!

Kudos to the authors!

🧪 Senate appropriators say: NIH's budget gets a... boost!

Rather than 40% cut, NIH gets a $400M *increase* in the Senate committee bill for FY26 (about +1%).

"Congress has your back," said @murray.senate.gov.

ADVOCACY MATTERS! There's still a long road (esp in the House), so keep up pressure.

Also be sure to read the instructions a Forms I SF424. These Fs will have the new format/review instructions so there are different components from the previous NOFOs.
