In August, Jay Bhattacharya said βTraining future biomedical scientistsβ was the 1st priority for his version of NIH.
But talk is cheap. Letβs see how JBβs doing. π€
NIH supports trainees mostly via fellowship (F), training (T), and career development (K) awards.
Here are funding curves for each.π§΅

This article did make me feel rather depressed - especially in the era of needing to disseminate our research across disciplines. It seems like excellent work that we need to hear about
These policies have trickled down to local participation events that USAC is involved in where they blanket adopt the same Olympic policies - excluding athletes from competing in community events π and resulting in decreased participation as a boycott in solidarity here in Colorado
Itβs a great podcast! Time to re-listen and refresh all of my talking points whenever this comes up in conversation π
Growing up in Humboldt County we always had the privilege of field trips and educational sessions with the local tribes - I hope that one day this will be a part of every elementary school educational program because those were the lessons that shaped my world view and sparked my curiosity
This was super easy!!! Do it!!!
Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.
It seems to all come back to publicity - as PTs we need to continue marketing prevention for ACL, BSI, concussion - and continue to partner with ATCs to reach more people in working in youth sports
Our Sports Physical Bill Needs Your Support in Colorado!
HB26-1231 authorizes licensed physical therapists to perform pre-participation physical examinations and provide written clearance for students participating in school athletic activities - were asking you to notify your representatives!
If career physical therapists and practice owners arenβt APTA members and donβt see the value how are we going to move our profession forward?
I wonder how we can get more physical therapists to come over! The movement does feel slow
Wrapped up another day at #aptacsm #csm2026 with the Mary McMillan lecture

One platform down and one more to go at 8am tomorrow #physicaltherapy
Thankful for the @foundation4pt.bsky.social support for PODSI - the University of Colorado was well represented last night at the rooftop #aptacsm #csm2026
Successful defending the delayed flight to #aptacsm #csm2026 after a few hours seated on the tarmac we may be departing soon π«π

Alex Pretti, wearing a green sweater with his VA badge on.
This is Alex Pretti.
This morning he was murdered by ICE. Six ICE agents held him down and shot him at point blank range. Alex was a nurse and researcher at the VA.
Our thoughts are with his loved ones and we stand united in action calling for the abolishment of ICE.
#ScientistsAgainstICE
When we are informed, we are prepared. When we are prepared, we save lives. NCAR keeps us informed.
Join us in writing to Congress to #SaveNCAR #FundNCAR!
It takes 30 seconds to write an email at tr.ee/save-ncar
Activism is expensive. For example, we recently leveled up on new software that makes yelling at your members of Congress very easy.
In our small test, ~3500 letter were sent, in less than a day, about saving NCAR!
Itβs $50k a year.

"The types of bans in front of the Supreme Court do nothing to solve the actual problems facing women's sports. Instead, they hurt all women and girls by encouraging folks to police what we look like and how we show up in the world. Let's stop with the bullying and let all kids play." - Ashlyn Harris, 2x World Cup champion and HRC Board Member
"I'm of the opinion that if you're a woman, you should play. If you consider yourself a woman and you want to play sports, or vice versa, you should be able to play." - Dawn Staley, 3-time national championship head coach for the South Carolina Gamecocks women's basketball team.
"There is no place in any sport for discrimination of any kinds. I'm proud to support all transgender athletes who simply want the access and opportunity to compete in the sport they love." - Billie Jean King, 39x Grand Slam tennis champion and longtime LGBTQ+ and women's rights advocate.
"To the trans athletes fearing that they may be sidelined from the sport they love: I see you and hear and I am with you." - Megan Rapinoe, 2x World Cup champion and LGBTQ+ and women's rights advocate.
Sports are for EVERYONE β including trans youth.
The greatest athletes of all time agree.
