We're busy making sure #APS2025 will be a fantastic meeting experience for everyone, so we're taking a break from new webinar content. Why don't you check out this year's Summit award lectures from leaders in their fields? ow.ly/Box850VfMx3 #WeArePhysiology 🧪

Look at this ever-growing list of institutions reducing PhD programs, and freezing new faculty hires… Cuts in funding will have a devastating impact on the future of the US biomedical research workforce… Full credit to @cbibberson.bsky.social
I created a brief spreadsheet of reductions I've heard of so far. Any additions you know of (especially if you have the links/receipts) would be great: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

This was supposed to be a post about my lab's first funding of the year, a diversity supplement to fund our amazing research technician. The award never arrived.

Now it's a post about the value of diversity and trying to persevere in these dark times.
