So well deserved! This is such important work and I am glad that @IshmailSaboor is being recognized as the pioneer that he is!
Congratulations to @IshmailSaboor on receiving the @NIH Director’s Pioneer Award, celebrating “scientists with outstanding records of creativity.” His lab will explore how the sense of touch can help build relationships. 🫶🧠💡See https://t.co/rv8V7mFrJT

Amazing scientist and one of the kindest leaders!
Wesley Sundquist, PhD, was named one of #TIME100 most influential people. His research at #UofUHealth led to lenacapavir, a drug preventing HIV with nearly 100% efficacy. Congrats, Dr. Sundquist! 👏 #HIVResearch #Science @UofUBiochem @UUHSResearch

Amazing. Thanks for defending science in America!
President Trump and Elon Musk’s funding cuts to groundbreaking medical research do NOT Make America Great. That’s why I’m on the Senate floor introducing a resolution pledging support for NIH & asking for immediate passage. Watch.

Our latest study on the role of oxytocin receptors in prairie voles is now published! We are deeply grateful to Larry, whose encouragement and vision allowed us to pursue this work. His legacy continues to guide and motivate us. https://t.co/mf7i6qpQeO

Scientists, now more than ever, need to explain their work to the public. Many years ago now, I gave a @TEDMED talk about my lab’s research.

Sad to hear this news. Amos was a giant in the field and yet he was always kind to me. Glad we got a couple of papers together! My condolences to his family and many many trainees.
We are deeply saddened to share that our friend and colleague Professor Amos B. Smith III has passed away. Amos joined Penn in 1973 and was a mainstay in our organic chemistry division. He recently celebrated 50 years of service to @PennSAS @Penn.

People are worried. I thought only PIs are disturbed but I realized yesterday that lab members are worried about the uncertainty as it comes to jobs fully supported by NIH grants. A friendly reminder: please reassure your students and trainees during these uncertain times.

“I want to be remembered for creating spaces that celebrate science,” HHMI Investigator Nels Elde says, “for supporting scientists so that they can grow.” Learn more about Elde’s work on host-pathogen evolution at @UUtah: https://t.co/XkxIY5An74

The NIH restructuring was openly advertised before the election and it's now in motion. There is no time to waste, hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. Don't get lost in speculation. Focus on what's within your control. Mission critical research: Focus on what’s
