Federal funding has been canceled #NIJ #OJP or delayed #NIH #NSF. This hurts us all! Imagine if, in 2023, no #NIH funds were provided to community programs, industries, R&D, etc. in FL. Removing federal $$ will hurt our local businesses and economies

#NIJ and all #DOJ opportunities for funding have been cancelled. This will have negative impacts on our public safety. #AcademicTwitter #Orms

Just completed our first High School Student Outreach event for our @INFORMS DEI ambassadors project. It was so wonderful to talk with students and seeing them get so excited about #ORMS. If they are the future, then I can't wait 😊 🎉

How are you actively improving #research culture?

Me: I am allowing myself to be vulnerable, having purposeful conversations about #mentalhealth, & encouraging others to do so!

Thanks @ZJAyres for this great, concise article! #AcademicChatter https://www.nature.com/articles/s41578-021-00...
