So, I emailed the link:

to my kids, some of my former graduate students and post-docs, and a few other friends. All in all, I shared the link with about 30 people.

I asked them to consider signing and to share the link with their own networks.

methods that will fly under the radar.

They don’t want to say “We’re cancelling NIH research by banning spending money” — because the media would cover that loud and clear.

So they say “pause Federal Register postings” “pause govt cards for a month.”
Don’t let them get away with this. Be loud. 🧪
