A Harvard Scientist’s Tuberculosis Research Is Threatened by Trump’s Cuts
Researchers who have lost funds warned of long-term repercussions, but several said their school should still refuse to comply with the federal government.

Excited to share our last study. Huge congrats to Sarah Monard, Arnaud Métais, @gclugo.bsky.social, @chrisverollet.bsky.social and all colleagues!
We have found a mysterious cell type inside TB lung lesions that seems neuron-like but isn't quite a nerve cell.
Let's dive in👇

This new study shows that inhibition of S1pr3 ameliorates bleomycin-induced #PulmonaryFibrosis (PF) by reducing #macrophage M2 polarization via the PI3K/Akt-Stat3 signaling pathway, indicating that S1pr3 may be a potential target for PF treatment.

An explainer about how health research funding happens and why this NIH funding cycle shutdown matters: www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
Opinion | I’m a health researcher. NIH’s pause on research grants could have a devastating cost.
This is a potentially devastating event — not just for the scientific community, but for all Americans.
