They’re invested in the journey to discover truths, find cures for diseases, create knowledge, advance science. If not stopped, these actions will destroy labs and institutions. The loss will be irreparable, impact society at each level. Heartbreaking stories from those affected.

Photos from the rally last week to support science, protest firings at NIH, NSF & budget cuts for research. Careers of people who worked hard for science & public service have been lost. There were many young people, including students from my lab, who’re anxious about the future

Join the protest in support of science & academia today (Feb 19, 12 pm) in DC! Join thousands of scientists as we raise our voice against federal firings, funding freezes and impending budget cuts which will be devastating for scientific research & discovery, and shut down labs.

A dream of our lab has been to image the full central dogma from a single endogenous gene, all live and with single molecule resolution. After many years we are happy to unveil a beautiful cell line that makes it possible. Check out our preprint (! (1/n)
