I'm grateful for those who are fighting back, and in the longterm much of this will likely be reversed (already being challenged in courts). Back on Futureproof this weekend with @jonathanmccrea.bsky.social and @shanedbergin.bsky.social to talk science news, because we've gotta keep going.

I know so many people affected by the cuts at NSF/NIH/NOAA, from firings to grant cancellations to politically motivated attacks on research topics like vaccines, transgender healthcare, and climate change.

Amazing! Congratulations!!
