Incredibly excited to finally officially launch our project BIOMEDASA. Biomedical data science needs to work better and we are aiming to do some work to find how we could do this. If you want to hear more get in touch!

Find out about new funding from the Medical Research Council for @cbflivuni.bsky.social to deliver an ambitious two-year project aimed at enhancing multidisciplinary work, diversity and accomplishment in biomedical data science.

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.

this year i've been trying to get a bit better about reading (and reading more widely) and hoping to make it to 20 books before the end of the year... only 3 left now...

its always super lovely and fulfilling running these events and seeing how excited the kids get. well done to the HLS outreach team for organising a great day out and providing us with the opportunity!
last saturday we partnered with @livunihls.bsky.social's public engagement team for their regular 'meet the scientists' event at the eureka! science + discovery museum. our stall (led by @ejjohnson93.bsky.social) aimed to show that scientists can be programmers too and was a huge success!
