The crush of new grant cancellations hasn't let up.

If your grant was terminated (or your app was pulled) please use this Google Form👇 to submit details for tracking purposes.

Multiple advocacy efforts are moving forward, but we must must must know more about what grants were cancelled and why.

It's Monty and the Mushrooms pub day!

Let's celebrate this whacky book with a wee jingle cooked up by my husband @christopherhenry.bsky.social featuring the song from the book!

Cheers to @jaredchapman.bsky.social for bringing my #fungifriends to life in the best way.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

It is entirely wrong for proposals with 'objectionable' language or from non-white scholars to be removed PRIOR to consideration. And AI must have been used to identify proposals to kick out, which means their ideas are food for the AI machine. Unacceptable. Call your representatives!

Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.

Here's a little peek at Monty and the Mushrooms!
