The US mostly funds biomedical research through a large lump payment to the NIH. Panels of scientists and doctors volunteer to decide on the merit of grant individual applications, not unlike a really boring battle royale. All of this is halted. No new science is being funded.

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals. So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good.

Perhaps you've wondered what Doritos would look like in a CT scan. We did, so here's a clump of Cool Ranch Doritos, scanned through the bag. But there's more...🧵

Please do not check your temperature via your urethra. And if you do, don’t shove it so far that it goes into your bladder and you forget about it for 15 years.
