Sometimes the spammers can be a source of entertainment. As soon as I got off the plane in Toronto got this message and could not resist during the 40 min uber ride …

My daughter made this short animation of #CellBiology cell cycle when she was a high school sophomore #scienceiscool I think it deserves an #Oscars for animation but will settle for a call from @aardman.bsky.social 🤪
Maybe the next one will be an immune cell killing cancer :)

Reboot help:

Maybe we can offer a few dozen eggs and a small power grid in exchange for making US the 11th province

This was one month ago. Now it is no longer Maybe. It is sadly prescient.

Trump administration funding cuts put search for cures for cancer, diabetes at risk, researchers say An oncologist and NIH-funded T-cell researcher said that without adequate indirect funding, labs will shrink, clinical trials will stall, and life-saving innovations will be lost.

‘Where is Elon Musk?’: Democratic Rep. Larson shouts at committee colleagues for blocking Musk’s testimony | CNN Politics Rep. John Larson (D-CT) criticized Elon Musk and shouted at his Republican colleagues after Musk’s testimony was blocked before a hearing of the House Ways and Means Committee on March 12.

The equivalent of spoiled-child being scolded in front of his friends. The crescendo in his voice is the stuff of nightmares which we hope resonate in their sleep. www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/p...

I toured for 20 years and after 9/11 lost my appetite for it.
So I started to tour Canada. I visited almost every province, and it is my favorite place in the world to travel.

It’s gotten so bad we need a CHART to follow the whiplash firings and re-hirings 🤦🏻‍♂️
Who runs a company like this. Much less a country ??

Ending the night with this.
*Get your hankies*
A D-Day veteran called a gracious and humbled Zelenskyy a hero.

Scientists often do not speak up because we deal with certainties and the whiplash of almost twice daily bulletins leaves many frozen with the uncertainty of the next assault . But one thing is certain. This is unprecedented. And the progress lost is unrecoverable.

If so, this is nuts. What about the women and children inclusion section in NIH grants? And enrollment tables. Are we only treating adult Caucasian males now ???

Terry Fox sparked my interest in cancer research 40 years ago when it funded a clerkship with mentor Bob Shiu @umanitobapress.bsky.social
His Marsthon of Hope is just as inspiring now as it was then.

Kneel before your masters! Jk. Some of my best friends are American 🇺🇸 🤝 🇨🇦

👏🏼 Judge Reyes should receive an honorary degree in human biology. Very impressive. Better than I can explain and with more patience than I would have.

If you had a biomarker signature that was non-invasive, easily accessible, highly accurate, simple to interpret and led to timely and effective intervention to save the lives of cancer patients would you be using it every chance you could ?
Just pee in a cup. lnkd.in/gyR8-qV.

Not really a lot of putting the different pieces of the puzzle together. But across all of HHS, centered especially at nih and nci you’ve got a ton of different actions all of which seem to have the common goal of making certain there’s never a new cancer drug or cure again ever.

RFK Jr. passes key HHS confirmation hurdle with Senate panel vote President Donald Trump’s pick to lead Health and Human Services faced tough questioning in hearings about vaccines, abortion and other major health-care issues.

Senator Cassidy betrayed his own conscience and Science in general as well as his oath to do no harm. Can we recall his MD degree?
