Inspired by Vietnam-era activism, Stand Up For Science is hosting a series of teach-ins around the USA this summer, focusing on the importance of science and science funding. I’m doing one May 30th in Silver Spring. Many of you should consider doing one too, and I’m happy to help you plan it 🦑🧪🌎

This is unbelievable! All funding announcements for F30, F31, F32 awards expired May 8, 2025. No more Fs.
ALERT

The expiration dates for the Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs) for the PARENT F30, F31, and F32 awards have been changed to May 8, 2025.

To my knowledge, no new NOFOs have been posted.

If only that breast cancer commercial ended with a notice about all the research funding cuts the current administration is pushing through and how it has immediate negative impacts on breast cancer research and screening.

Neuropathy pain has been the most debilitating side effect of chemotherapy for me with no treatment. This reports summarize it very well!
Painful, chronic peripheral neuropathy from cancer chemotherapy is common, especially from platinum-based drugs and taxanes, as reported today in a meta-analysis of 77 studies from 28 countries

Ok this is cool!
For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025
