BREAKING: Scientists are staging a “science fair” in the lobby of a Congressional building to tell elected officials about the critical knowledge the US will lose because their research grants have been canceled.

When will voters ever learn that the GOP is not the fiscally responsible party?

Read this whole thread about how segregation is being enacted at the NIH

This will have life and death consequences for communities of color that depend on interlocutors from our communities that do science with our well-being in mind 🧪
Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.

Agreeing with Elizabeth here. It's giving, "I discovered the new world.". It's giving, "I am a colonizer."
This is what I think of as a specific kind of ignorance that heavily affects young white guys who work in tech. It says “i don’t know about this, so I assume no one else does either.” It’s new to them, so it must be new to everybody!

@alondra.bsky.social I heard you speak at ASU earlier this year and love it. It was refreshing to hear a frank discussion about tech and society. Thank you!

At the Digital Democracy Centre, we've just created this cool new starter pack featuring research institutions, researchers, NGOs, journals, and think tanks focused on how digital technologies and AI impact media, politics, and democracy.

We'll be updating the list continuously!
