I truly cannot emphasize enough how this is straight up Lysenkoism.

Because of the incredible work of our nation’s scientists, we have our finger tips on the closest thing humanity has ever come to “a cure for cancer”, but brainworm over here doesn’t believe in it.

Thousands of research projects—some years in, with taxpayer money already spent—were wiped out by Trump’s budget cuts.

At the Science Fair of Lost Research, scientists showed what was lost: cancer breakthroughs, climate solutions, public health progress.

Congress is rebranding the BIG budget bill “Healthcare Reform.” Nonsense. The bill will gut Medicaid, affect Medicare [YES, Medicare!] & reduce ACA enrollment—to fund tax cuts for the rich. Are you enrolled in Medicaid, Medicare or the ACA now? What if the bill passes? Then what? @lwvus.bsky.social

🚨 Over 70 graduate programs in the biological and biomedical sciences have frozen or slashed admissions.

The consequences are profound—how many brilliant minds are being shut out of research entirely? How much future discovery is being lost before it even begins?
