Update. Congrats to my 1st year grad student Nicole Matos Vega (not on the blueskies [yet]) for receiving the NSF GRFP! She will work on methanogens in culture and Puerto Rican mangrove swamps!
Congrats to my students Nicole Matos Vega and Joelie van Beek for both receiving honorable mentions at the GRFP. I hear they only gave out half the number of awards this year:( So it’s an even bigger achievement than normally.

“These students are not just participants in science. They are crucial to its evolution…The termination of programs that have been shown to reduce barriers to STEM inclusiveness means a narrowing of scientific inquiry and a missed opportunity to expand the scope and relevance of research.”

To say I’m grateful feels insufficient — but thank you to everyone who got me here 🥳
The precipitous drop in NSF GRFP awards is just one of the many ways the next generation of scientists is hurting right now. Call your reps, especially if they are on this subcommittee that determines NSF budget.

This 51% cut to graduate fellowships is a bloodbath.
And it's one of the first public indications of just how much NSF thinks its STEM education budget (the EDU directorate funds the GRFP) might be slashed by Congress.
(Prior, we only knew that new EDU awards were being evaluated but not issued)

NSF grants don't just cover those at a uni, but can impact K-12 teachers & students, community engagement opportunities, and science communication between scientists & stakeholders
I know the US gov doesn't give a f but we the people should care about each other enough to take action
