So your research area has been politicized and your federal funding cancelled, what now? I try to give some answers in this opinion piece for @nature.com 1/

www.nature.com/articles/d41...
When the government cancels your research grant, here’s what you can do
The mass cancellation of US federal grants marks yet another escalation in political interference in science, but there are ways to keep crucial research going.

Super excited to announce the launch of the Gender + Sexuality Data Lab, a new data initiative at the University of Edinburgh exploring how data is reshaping the fight for LGBTQ equalities in the UK and around the world.

📊 gensexdatalab.com
A colourful background with white text that reads: ‘The Gender + Sexuality Data Lab brings together people – working across industries, bridging theory and practice – who want data to build a better world. It aims to incubate and empower forward-thinking approaches to identity data that embrace its messiness and are savvy to its political effects.’ To the left-hand side is a headshot of Dr Kevin Guyan, the Director of the Gender + Sexuality Data Lab. At the bottom is the Lab’s logo.
