A remarkable AP photo of a protester dressed as Lady Liberty being cuffed by helmeted cops. She is looking straight at the camera with a tired "you seeing this shit?" expression.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: AAAS LSEN: Sharing Your Research Story with State Lawmakers. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar. Scientists and engineers are often trained to talk about their research in the context of federal funding decisions, but engaging state lawmakers requires a different approach. In this interactive, wo...

The rules of immunity are different in early life! Lead author Dr. Yue Xing finds that early life DCs sense allergens and trigger inflammation directly in skin. This in-situ activation state emerges from a developing HPA and low glucocorticoids. #Naiklab @nature.com

NY medical schools press Gov. Hochul to put up billions for scientific research The request comes amid continuing uncertainty over federal funding, with research and thousands of jobs on the line.

NYers helps us call on @governor.ny.gov to invest in the Empire Biomedical Research Institute. A robust, stable research ecosystem protects jobs, fuels innovation, and builds community health. NY must invest in our global leadership in science. nycures.org @gothamist.com: tinyurl.com/5fab5k7u

Immunologists Push for State Biomedical Research Funding in New York - AAI News Dr. Shruti Naik is one of the immunologists in New York state behind NY-CURES, advocating for state investment in biomedical research.

Wondering why you should ✍ our petition? c.org/nDnRNSsVcq

In @aai.org, founder @drshrutinaik.bsky.social reveals why the coalition was formed, why NY needs a state-backed research institute, and how scientists should organize for systemic support — here and nationwide.

It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.

Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.

Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!
