All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

It’s already begun; institutional leaders should be taking this seriously. Even though it was expected for anyone who read about Project 2025, it’s no less alarming. Pay attention, folks. It’s a *long* way until Nov. 2028.

The first question Ive gotten from a lot of you is "what field are you in?" I am getting my PhD in Biostatistics, which is the study of statistics applied to data from living things (where the bio prefix comes from). Biostatisticians have the same training in statistical theory as statisticians. 1/3

Wow! I did not expect to receive so many congratulatory words in response to my last post. Thank you Bluesky peeps. And I am so glad that so many of you are interested in hearing about my field. I will post a short primer at biostatistics and my research area tomorrow.
