A trusted editor has asked if I can identify a lab or PI or research team who have lost funding/shut down a project, whose loss will help narrativize the current moment for an everyday reader.
Is this you? Or someone you know? Would love to hear recs or be in contact.

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it.

Strong power move for Team Cancer.

A democrat on the committee should unilaterally release the Gaetz report and then Biden should immediately pardon them. Won’t happen since Biden still plays by the 1980s rule book, but it’s what should happen
