Fantastic news.
Finally a good news post 😬. The NIH has started reinstating 900 critical research grants that were deemed unlawfully canceled. The court’s decision is a significant victory for researchers and institutions challenging the politicization of science funding.

Unbelievable.
If they can handcuff a U.S. Senator for asking a question, imagine what they will do to you.

I’m devastated by this act of violence. We’re Boulder Strong, but these types of heinous acts take a grave toll on our collective sense of safety and community. I stand prepared to support Boulder and Colorado’s Jewish community as we reckon with such an egregious act.

People were fire bombed and were sent to the hospital from my understanding. This is horrible.
We are responding to a report of an attack at 13th and Pearl streets with reports of several victims. PLEASE AVOID THE AREA! We will put out more information soon.

Easy to tear done, so hard to build back up. This is going to have devastating impact in so many ways.
We are going to lose an entire generation of scientists. NSF, one of the largest federal funder of STEM education has seen an 80% reduction in funding, including support for trainees, so far this year. “You can’t have science without scientists”

So true. Halting investments in health care research is unbelievably short-sighted. They can halt work instantaneously. Starting the research back up can take years. This will have profound negative effects on society.
dyk the Human Genome Project cost taxpayers about $ 3 Billion over 13 years but is estimated to have a generated an ROI of $1 Trillion impacting the fields of medicine, agriculture, energy, and the environment. Science is not a cost. It’s an investment with countless returns.
