I am one of these NSF postdocs. NSF has frozen everyone’s access to their salaries and research stipends (that were already awarded) with no information about when they might be expected to be unfrozen. It still appears like we are expected to continue doing our work though.
Apparently all the PhD researchers holding prestigious NSF-funded research fellowships are having their salaries withheld until some unspecified time when the leadership figures out how to eliminate any grant funding that doesn’t align with the president’s political ideology.
It’s official: all funding requests made on Tuesday by postdocs for their salaries have been unilaterally rejected by NSF.

Preprint up detailing our work on Parapipe: a pipeline for handling protozoan NGS datasets, integrating polyclonality analysis with high resolution phylogenomic clustering for eukaryotic pathogen surveillance.

With a healthy dose of Crypto, of course!
