I am reviewing a simply amazing paper from a relatively young US-based lab, which is in danger of shutting its doors later this year. My emotions are all over the place.
The fact that this does not uniquely identify the lab I’m referring to just deepens the tragedy of this moment in US science.
Finished the day with Sen Alsobrooks to advocate for #science funding #NIH #NSF #FASEB Hill Day

i feel like if i was tasked with not starting a war and bringing back US manufacturing jobs, i could have done a better job than this
Donald Trump has made $4 billion off the presidency.
His rich friends get $1 trillion in tax cuts.
Everyone else gets higher prices and job losses.
The Trump economy is a disaster.
A broad-ranging collection of facts about public science.

It’s a good day to remember what the 22nd Amendment ratified: that presidents are limited to TWO terms in office.
No exceptions.
I know this feels pointless but everyone has to call their congressional reps and say they oppose war with Iran and they oppose Trump illegally starting one without congressional approval — both
