I have always wondered why there is not a bigger focus on modeling this in basic science, clearly never did anything about it, but really pumped to see you guys highlighting the importance of this!

So incredibly heartbreaking. She was an amazing scientist, mentor to so many, partner, partner and person. My heart has been heavy for her family and colleagues. 💔

💯. I am just mystified how using the trainees diversity status to defund them is legal when there is an equivalent mechanism for non-diverse applicants. Would love some lawyers to chime in here #laborlaw #discrimination #breachofcontract #legalhelp

Get ready to FOIA NIH. Make them show their cards: the funded diversity Fs were in line or exceeded the scores of regular funded nondiversity funded Fs. So then not merit based, just blatant discrimination. Diversity is not a score-able criteria, just differentiates where the money comes from. 🤬

This will continue to be postponed and livelihoods and scientific advancements are going suffer the consequences. You can nay say, but you said calm down and wait til Feb 1, now that’s been pushed back further. You don’t know because you aren’t in it and doesn’t affect you.

Decisions on ALL funding have been further paused. If some uneducated trump minion decides a grant is “not in line with administration priorities” in any way they can cancel current awards and block review of pending. It’s not just DEI but those are their priorities.
