💡 But without proper NSF funding, those opportunities are at risk. Repost this to celebrate STEM and join our efforts to Save NSF.

Visit our toolkit today at www.savensf.com/take-action.

🔬 From advancing clean energy solutions to powering breakthroughs in computing and medicine, NSF supports STEM research and education across the nation.

For the past several months, NSF’s mission has been under threat and is now on hold due to the government shutdown. To protect the discoveries of tomorrow, we must act today. Visit our toolkit to learn how you can stand with us to #SaveNSF.

💡 In the 1960s, NSF also expanded its support for astronomy and climate research by building new observatories and advancing studies of the atmosphere.

💡 By 1964, NSF rolled out Science Development Grants, also called its Centers of Excellence program, aiming to raise the research capacity of “second tier” institutions.

💡 In 1960, NSF launched its Graduate Science Facilities program, offering matching grants to graduate universities to build or renovate research labs.

💡 In the 1960s, NSF funding made history when linguist William C. Stokoe’s groundbreaking research on American Sign Language redefined Deaf education in the United States.

Staff and budget cuts to the National Science Foundation imperil US leadership in science and technology at a time when we need to redouble our efforts to maintain world leadership in all of computing, including AI and quantum,

research that has been responsible for decades of economic and societal benefits, including the early research behind companies like Google, Akamai, Duolingo, and DataBricks, and the trained advanced workforce our innovation sector needs.

"The National Science Foundation is responsible for approximately 80% of the federal investments in basic Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) research in US universities annually –
