I often think about what it will look like to rebuild NIH. It's going to be hard, expensive work.
And that's if we stop the damage and start rebuilding soon.
It's only going to get harder the longer this lasts.
In a first last month, renewables supplied more power to the U.S. than natural gas, a milestone in the shift to clean energy.
Science needs more than funding to prosper.
We aren’t going to find the cure for Alzheimer’s disease through hostility, govt sponsored misinformation, banning words, eliminating DEI efforts, and spotlighting fringe conspiracy theories.
One party is doing this.
One party is fighting against this.
It's never been easy to be trans in the US...this is more true than ever today on Trans Day of Visibility.
RFK Jr. et al., are actively attacking trans folks and gender affirming care.

Awesome! Congratulations!
Stoked to be named "Researcher of the Year" at Western's medical school. A real honour that reflects the hard work of my trainees and collaborators. www.schulich.uwo.ca/about/news-e...
The tragic and violent losses of human life, art, history, science, etc. are incalculable.
What a beautiful and graceful set of tiles. Just lovely.
While Trump launches us into a new forever war, he’s quietly preparing to take over our elections at home and rig the midterms in his favor.
He knows he can’t win on the merits, so he’s preparing to cheat. We won’t let him get away with it.

… for my audience of millions: I’ve spent the last 30 minutes trying to add references to my bibliography. They show up, but then keep disappearing, so I’m still unable to complete this biosketch, which I’ve been working on (on on-and-off) for the last 5 hours.
"Filipino role models in psychology were essentially nonexistent for me. On top of that, the articles assigned in my seminars never included Filipino participants. ”

@seanryanforbuffalo.bsky.social A valued member of the scientific community right here in Buffalo is being held by ICE. What can you as mayor do about this?

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
Lol. #bizarroDavid
New year, new era of discovery. Thank you for all of your support this year and we can’t wait to share 2026 with you. Happy New Year from all of us at The Jackson Laboratory!
If you have some time off these holidays have another look at our beautiful review on #LC neuropeptides 🔵🧠
Heads up I will be hiring a postdoc and some techs in the new year! Lots of ephys and fiber photometry. If you've got soon to graduate PhD students or undergrads, send 'em my way!

Happy holidays, from my family to yours.
I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.
Been there... in my case, it was trying to accurately read the markers on a 0.5 cc hypodermic.
