Rufus was the most ridiculously independent cat who spent more time outside than in. Since he went fully blind he lost all his confidence and turned himself into an inside cat.
He took to a harness instantly and I’m so pleased I can help expand his world again 💙

We’ve written to Wes Streeting today urging him not to abandon women’s health hubs:

“to improve health outcomes we need a strategic, gendered approach to both women’s and men’s health. They are complementary, not antagonistic”

I'm on the hunt for things to cover in Research Digest once again.

If you're a UK-based psychologist and have published something nifty in the past 6 months or so, link me! I'd love to have a read.

A three-year old, his mother, and his grandmother were speaking Spanish while shopping in Milwaukee. They’re U.S. citizens from Puerto Rico but were taken by ICE. Once in detention, the mother was able to produce ID and birth certificates proving citizenship:

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
