Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences. In FY 2027, NSF will close-out this directorate. Continuing grants that align with Administration priorities, such as in behavioral and cognitive science, and all impacted employees will be transferred to other parts of the agency. The National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics will operate independently of the directorates and continue to be supported through the R&RA appropriation.

Once again it is time to contract your representatives: The FY27 budget request for NSF (see nsf-gov-resources.nsf.gov/files/FY-202...) would get rid of the Directorate for Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences.

A view of the Earth from NASAโ€™s Orion spacecraft as it orbits above the planet during the Artemis II test flight. Earth is a crescent on the right and the Orion spacecraft's aft thrusters are visible on the left.

Good morning from orbit. That's us. That's home.

(I also know someone who was hospitalized after being bitten by one ๐Ÿ˜ฑ, so I approach opportunities like that with the upmost focused/deliberate intent and reverence. They are also really slow lol.)

I was with herpetologist friends! Iโ€™ve also kept snakes, lizards, and arachnids most of my life (currently donโ€™t have any). Letโ€™s just say Iโ€™m comfortable and know how to handle them. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐ŸฆŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ•ท๏ธ๐Ÿฆ‚
