From public health to high-tech innovation, universities are the workhorses of national progress.
Universities are not passive beneficiaries of government largesse. It is the federal government that depends on universities to conduct the research that keeps our nation healthy, safe and economically competitive.I discuss in the Washington Post. https://t.co/fQX5mwHu4f

Damn I love Portland
Hundreds of naked bike riders have now joined the protest in front of the ICE Facility and now there’s a massive turnout of people here. Portland PD has issued multiple warnings asking protesters to clear the road or they would be subject to arrest and crowd control munitions

The Secretary of Health and Human Services, who is giving pregnant women medical advice, does not understand the difference between a uterus and a placenta.
RFK Jr: "Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a pregnant woman at 8 months pregnant -- she's an associate professor at the Columbia Medical School -- and she is saying 'F Trump' and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta. The level of Trump Derangement Syndrome has now

Also to stress the importance of fudamental curiosity driven science - his #devbio work served as the foundation for much of stem cell biology and regenerative medicine
John Gurdon https://t.co/QXMjHLKlS3, beacon of a generation that tackled head on the deepest question of biology: the development of an organism. The best tribute to him and his peers should be to remember and follow the path they forged for how to do Science in form and content.

The cruelty is a feature not a bug folks. Past time for that "head down focus on the science" bs - step up and start fighting back
Continuing efforts to hurt the research pipeline, the very late NSF GFRP solicitation no longer allows 2nd yr PhD students to apply. Many students chose not to apply last year because they were told they would have a better change once in their thesis lab

Just try to wrap your mind around the fact that republicans are linking tylenol to autism but not guns to mass shootings 🤯

If only there was a study of Tylenol and Autism.... oh wait! Conclusions: Acetaminophen use during pregnancy was not associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability in sibling control analysis. https://t.co/eAWOBs2je2

This nationwide cohort study with sibling control analysis examines the association of acetaminophen use during pregnancy with children’s risk of autism, ADHD, and intellectual disability.
I understand and applaud President Trump’s desire to address this issue and to support HHS. HHS should release the new data that it has to support this claim. The preponderance of evidence shows that this is not the case. The concern is that women will be left with no options to

Hey Grok do Amish kids get autism https://t.co/kaNWHbclda
Trump: Bobby wants to be very careful with what he says. I’m not so careful with what I say. Certain groups, the amish, as an example. They have essentially no autism

This was fun because it circles back to the very first paper from my lab that showed that Myc is required for neural crest stemness (Dev Cell, 2003 Jun;4(6):827-39), three years before Yamanaka published its role in reprogramming cells to pluripotency
WDR5 and Myc Cooperate to Regulate Formation of Neural Crest Stem Cells https://t.co/v0sCSS8e5N

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

So.. it would appear that having "a leftist ideology" is defined by being gay or bisexual. What say you @LogCabinGOP ??!

Feel Free to add me - he was a racist, homophobic, sexist right wing agitator.
@willchamberlain I’ve only just begun creating a spreadsheet of people who’ve said vile things about Charlie Kirk’s assassination. So far, teachers and professors are by far the most represented.

but remember you cannot use race as one factor in a wholistic college admissions process. Hypocracy much?!
Today’s US Supreme Court ruling allowing racial targeting, that being Hispanic and working a low-income job and not speaking English proficiently ‘constitute at least reasonable suspicion of illegal presence in the United States’, is staggeringly racist. Shameful, disgusting
