ok, ok, we might as well get started. rumor is that study sections will Not Discuss ~70% of applications rather than the usual ~half.
Given how long it has been (20 years?) since anything with a 30th percentile is within reasonable discussion room of funding, I am not sure this has much impact.

I went to Bosnia last summer and witnessed the ongoing, unresolved trauma among the Bosnian people and the fact that many structures are not rebuilt. The idea that someone would want to shoot at people, trapped in a city in a valley, no words
This is one of the most sickening things I've read in a long time. We need names *yesterday*

Prosecutors are examining allegations that foreigners paid between €80k and €100k to take part in a ‘sniper safari’

The NIH passed three major #NIHGrant submission deadlines during the shutdown with a fourth hitting on Monday. There is a huge backlog of proposals needing to be referred to study sections and ICs for potential funding.

While the government was shut down, 379 NIH study section meetings (containing 24,380 grant applications) were postponed. NIH is committed to getting these reviewed, but please be patient and understanding with staff, as this is a complex and heavy lift.
