This is also a fantastic time for NIH grant reviewers to be really careful with their critique language. Of course you want to use the Gold Standard concepts. And avoid the trigger words. Look, you can like the grant for whatever reasons you want and write approving critiques that pass muster.

First highlight...

Senator Capito started of the discussion saying that the bill contains AN INCREASE for NIH.

The details are not available, but the bill will be released ofter the hearing.

This is not a done-deal, but it does show where the Senate is on a bipartisan basis.

Our paper, looking at gut microbiome and DTI #neuroimaging changes with morphine use, is finally available!! Super excited about this initial work and looking forward to sharing many others soon #neuroskyence #microbiome #Neuroscience onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Looks like NIH Councils are going to resume meeting in April/May

I hope you will all join me in expressing your thanks to the NIH and NSF staff who are working in an impossibly difficult and chaotic environment to keep science going in our country.

Much needed work by @grandjeanlab.bsky.social and friends: fMRI data acquisition and analysis for task-free, anesthetized rats www.nature.com/articles/s41.... If you are doing rat fMRI, or thinking about it, this is your starter pack!

Oh great… the same new PIs who were hit by a global pandemic just as they started are now trying to renew their grants and get tenure when the funding agencies are actively being destroyed. But sure.... that COVID tenure clock extension reeaaallly made a difference....

A tradition started in the other app and now continuing it her. I want to highlight Miss. Kylie Jones on submitting her MS work on DTI changes in a model pre-eclampsia for review. Fingers crossed for a smooth review process.

Great researcher, mentor, and person. Dr. Young’s lab would be a great place to be @jaredwyoung.bsky.social

Glad to be at @acnporg.bsky.social in our study group. Thanks to the attendees for their insights and amazing discussions and the #ACNP for supporting the Latin American committee. Looking forward to next year.

I’m Luis, an assistant professor at UNTHSC in Fort Worth TX. My theird ACNP and looking to connect w as many of you as possible.

We have a study group on Monday so hope to see everyone

We recently shared a preprint where we share longitudinal MRI and gut microbiome findings showing concurrent changes between them. #neuroskyence #neuroimaging #neuroscience

Hello Bluesky! Looking to connect with #neuroimaging #compneurosky #neuroskyence #neuroscience #psych peers. I will be sharing work on addiction and aging using MRI and behavior but also want to learn from the neuro community here on mental health and neurobiology.

Check out our updated database of 189 PhD fellowships and funding opportunities.

For each fellowship, we provide a description, $ amount, deadline, link to funder and eligibility criteria (such as citizenship).

Good luck!
