🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Just downloaded all NIH reporter data 1985-2024, you can do it here, might come handy. Took me maybe 5', is 1 GB in size.

This was a super cool one - we collaborated with researchers from N. Korea, and my part was to model potential distributions of amphibian species across the country:

My master's thesis publication: Secondary human impacts on the forest understory of Ulleung Island, South Korea, a temperate island
Fun fact: the title originally ended with "in the Sea of Japan" but I published in a Korean journal, so calling it the Sea of Japan was a big no no.
