National Science Foundation-funded research gave us smartphones, Google, & tools that detect cancer. Now, as the agency turns 75, it's facing devastating cuts. Science fuels innovation & our economy. Let’s not cut the engine. #SaveNSF #NSFfunded #NSF75

75 years after its founding, NSF is now in peril - #WithoutNSF, we might not have the knowledge, innovations, and societal benefits we do today, just a few of which are listed in this thread

#SaveNSF so that US & international scientists working in the US can continue this important work
HAPPY 75th, NSF!

We’re celebrating this milestone by highlighting some of NSF’s most transformative accomplishments—innovations that have shaped our world and continue to drive progress in health, technology, the environment, and beyond.

"In April...ecologist Julia Earl received a distressing notice...the grant supporting her research...was being prematurely canceled...But Earl, whose NSF grant used the word diversity 152 times, wasn’t studying DEI; she was studying insect diversity" #saveNSF

Consider sharing your stories about how the NSF has changed your life you whether or not you received funding from this agency which is being destroyed. Until 2 months ago, the NSF had a historian. She is collecting your stories. They matter. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnt2...

“We don’t have a plan yet.” (For displacing all of the NSF employees…!)

Are they serious? What a bunch of absolute MORONS.
