MD-Ph.D. Candidate at Columbia University. Interested in the brain and behavior.
Had a total blast chatting with other scientists and presenting my work at my first #SOBP last week! Honored to have received the 2025 Travel Award that made it all possible. Hope to come back soon another year!

Wait, can they really do that to Columbia University? Is it legal? Can they get away with it?

Last year, I was overjoyed to receive an NIH NRSA fellowship to study toddler brains and caregiving effects on memory at Columbia. Last night, my grant was terminated.

This is an insane move for NIH to make when the obvious answer is to review all the F grants this cycle as a single pool.
My student's diversity F31 has been pulled from study section even though it's the SAME APPLICATION as regular F31s, normally reviewed together in the same panel. Throwing out all the applications from URMs while the ones from white/privileged students get to be reviewed is blatant discrimination.
The CSR comm I'm on just pulled all Diversity F grants from the current review cycle. These apps are reviewed alongside (and by the same criteria) as all other F grants. So, instead of helping these trainees, they will actually be punished by having their grant reviews delayed at least 1 cycle !?!?
