Stuttering is the most common speech fluency disorder and is as heritable as many common complex traits. Yet, genetic research of stuttering has lagged behind other human traits. In collaboration with #23andme we conducted the first large-scale GWAS of stuttering. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Something I've been feeling a lot lately, but haven't heard much about is the grief that comes with being an early career scientist in America in 2025.
I think we all understand that, even if things turn out well, there is no going "back to normal" now.

Federal funding of biomedical research has been a remarkably successful partnership, with benefits that are so intertwined in our daily lives that they can be easy to take for granted.
So what will we lose if the U.S. continues to defund research?
