Extra grateful to receive an NIAAA R21 award today. My former labmate/grad school BFF (Amy Stamates) and I will use EMA to examine impulsivity/craving and alcohol when co-used with cannabis and/or nicotine among young adults.
As many are waiting on NIAAA awards, I thought I'd share some history:

In some fields, researchers who end up with time series of two variables of interest (X and Y) like to analyze (reciprocal) lagged effects between them. Does X affect Y at a later point in time, and d...

Next on the list for grants cancellation: California.
Agencies are being told to start identifying grants the administration can withhold from CA. On Capitol Hill, at least one committee was told by a whistleblower that all research grants to the state were going to be cancelled, per @cnn.com.

Expected at this point but so so disappointing and unfair. We are effectively punishing some of America's best science students for telling the government they are from an underrepresented community.

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 !?!?
