I am going to #standupforscience2025 in DC March 7. Why? Because I cannot look back on this moment in time and realize I didn't do anything except watch in horror. See you there, friends!

It’s been buried in all the news today, but every scientist in the US should pay attention to this:

Mike Lauer went out on a limb for us all, sending out a memo saying institutes should start awarding grants. And it looks like Trump/Musk fired him for that. 🧪
NEW: In a further sign of turmoil at the NIH, Mike Lauer, who oversees the agency's $39 billion extramural budget that goes to research outside the NIH, has resigned effective tomorrow.

This comes after top NIH official Larry Tabak abruptly retired yesterday.

Some of my friends lost their government jobs today. Skilled Americans working science jobs. Not wasteful or fraudulent. Hard working and tax paying Americans with families. For what reason?
