Another fantastic explanation of how basic science helps people and society.
Northwestern scientist Julius Lucks makes an eloquent appeal for why research funding matters to us all. tinyurl.com/yjbk5zca #syntheticbiology #research #northwestern #funding
What’s next for Northwestern researchers amid funding cuts and work stoppages?
Northwestern researchers received notices from the Department of Defense to stop their work immediately.

Well said, Julius! Universities grow unexpected discoveries and the next generation of scientists who can lead!
Professors and researchers at Chicago-area universities said federal funding cuts are leaving research projects unfinished.
Julius Lucks, a chemical engineering professor at Northwestern, speaks on if another sector could fund university research.

The astounding contribution of US academic science to new medicines

We set out to quantify U.S. academic contributions to medicines. The results stunned even us
From 2020 to 2024, universities contributed patents underpinning 50% of FDA-approved drugs. 87% of those academic breakthroughs came from American institutions.

Very proud of David Staněk, my first postdoctoral fellow who helped me get my own lab off to a great start 🙏... and a wonderful scientist who has thrived since 🔬🧬!
🧡Reflecting on David's scientific journey, he admits that as a young scientist, he never imagined one day being a part of such a prestigious organization.

Wow! This is an exciting and important action!
Hi friends - In the face of unprecedented cuts to the basic research science funding, climate scientists are staging an 100-hour live stream of why science matters. There will be many talks on all sorts of things (I'm Saturday at 12:30 PT). Please share widely! wcstreamathon.netlify.app. 🌊🧪
The Weather & Climate Livestream
Join us starting May 28th, as meteorologists and climate scientists from across the US share their research and answer your questions.

This is shocking and unacceptable. The only lab leak evidence is circumstantial. None of these five claims stand up.
The White House has turned COVID.gov from a public health resource into a politically charged platform promoting the lab-leak theory and attacking specific scientists and the pandemic response in general. Let’s fact check its 5 headline claims… 🧵
