A graphic showing the new blog post, entitled “The Lab Bench under Fascism” was published on Medium.
Original illustration by @emmascales.bsky.social for the blog post. It’s a moody picture in varying shades of red. Scientists working at lab benches with glassware are surrounded by blood vessel looking vines that pump things away from the experiments and scientists themselves.
It’s #blog post day!
SNAPper Emma Scales (@emmascales.bsky.social) asks us to recognize patterns in science & #scipol that lead to compliance with & progression of #fascism.
What must change to avoid repeating history? 🤔
TW: genocide, racism, murder

So excited to present on a panel at SciTalk with my amazing fellow SNAPpers @alexlando.bsky.social David Ramotowski @eselland.bsky.social @emmascales.bsky.social! If you're attending, stop by the SNAP posters too! Cael Dant @disha-patel3.bsky.social @isakoditomassi.bsky.social @jpflores.rbind.io
This one’s worth a read !!! (But really, they all are)

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.
This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya is now also the temporary head of the CDC, a role in which he is expected to continue to do nothing but appear on right-wing podcasts and further cement the complete lack of respect of his colleagues.

🫰snaps🫰for @snapcoalition.bsky.social, the first group of grad students to join us on the plenary stage in almost 180 years!
It is beyond insulting for @aaas.org to plan to host Brian Greene, an associate of Jeffrey Epstein, for a plenary talk at #AAAS2026, then cancel it the day before, only for the replacement to insist Greene was a “good scientist” and that he wished we could all hear from him.
NEW Science Policy in a SNAP just dropped!
Learn more about members @ashyeneng.bsky.social @brycewedig.bsky.social and @bdavisbio.bsky.social, and why they do the amazing things they do.

Yesterday I attended the #SciencePolicyAtACrossroads Symposium at @denvermuseumns.bsky.social with Shreya, my fellow SNAPper (@snapcoalition.bsky.social)!! I learned a lot about science policy in CO and met some amazing individuals- grateful to be expanding my network.
& look at that view!!
Come see us at Booth 605 at @aaas.org Conference Feb. 12-14 in #Phoenix, AZ!

"A federal judge on Friday ruled the Energy Department violated the law when Secretary Chris Wright handpicked five researchers who reject the scientific consensus on climate change to work in secret on a sweeping government report on global warming."

New #SciencePolicy in a SNAP is out today! Jan 30 is World #NTDDay, read “The Intersection of Policy and #Schistosomiasis on Neglected Tropical Disease Day“ by Becca Blyn and @eselland.bsky.social
#SNAPblog #GlobalHealth #TropicalDisease #SciPol
World NTD day is also the perfect time for me to have a committee meeting for my dissertation work, so I’m off to go finish prepping for that 😂
Becca Blyn and I co-wrote a piece for Science Policy in a SNAP (the @snapcoalition.bsky.social awesome blog on Medium). Medium only lets you have 1 “author” which is silly.
Becca and I hope you enjoy, reflect on today, and learn something new!
January 30th is World #NTD day, the perfect time to bring together my research on #schistosomaisis and interest in #sciencepolicy. Read “The Intersection of Policy and Schistosomiasis on Neglected Tropical Disease Day“ by Emily Selland on Medium: medium.com/science-poli...
Absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to attend my first #AAASmtg with a group from @snapcoalition.bsky.social !! We have so many chances to connect and meet new folks. Will I see you at our panel? Reception? Booth?
Today CBP officers executed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37 year old nurse who worked at the VA. He was an observer, he was restrained and he was on the ground.
Can’t wait for all of what’s coming down the line!!!
Hello, everyone! SNAP is proud to announce that we've started a blog! Check out our first post on Medium (medium.com/@snapscipolo...) or our website (snapcoalition.org/2026/01/19/s...), and stay tuned for more!
@eselland.bsky.social @kassstem.bsky.social @jolybdenum.bsky.social and Cael Dant
I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there.
I need you to listen to these people.
STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.
We started a blog for @snapcoalition.bsky.social and I was excited to write our introductory post! Check it out on #Medium

More long- and short-winded thoughts in the #science-policy space coming soon
