Terminating unrelated biomedical research grants because of political accusations before any kind of investigation or due process is an obscene authoritarian move that in addition to being unamerican, will weaken America permanently
Today #NIH is terminating more than $250 million in funding—including more than 400 grants—to Columbia University following directives from the Trump Administration’s Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism. The cancellations are due to Columbia University’s continued inaction in the face of persistent harassment of Jewish students.

Ah yes because CS PhD are also famously the best guitarists to ever live
None of these people realize that by the end of 2026, AI will be composing guitar music at the average level of a PhD in computer science

You guys are making 60k?
There are too many bio PhD positions. Few of these graduates are able to obtain a PI position. Universities only train so many because they are cheap labor who will work 80 plus hours a week for 60 grand.

The NIH’s new imposed standard indirect cost rate threatens life-saving brain and behavior research that benefits millions of Americans. SfN, with other scientific organizations, urge reversal of this policy and implore Congress to protect critical research infrastructure. Read the full statement: bit.ly/4jVJnCL

Since we're talking about funding of absurd research by NIH and other federal agencies, the funded scientists: - watching flies fuck - giving rats massages - spending years digging into why jellyfish glow - tracking penguin poop from space - using horseshoe crab blood

However simply addressing the sleep fragmentation isnt enough to resolve symptoms, even when sleep fragmentation was removed and mice were allowed to recover we still found heightened markers for neuroinflammation a month following injury

Wait you’re telling me Gatorade doesn’t actually contain any Eagle?
We joke that DMEM is fancy Gatorade.... So how much DMEM can you replace with Gatorade before cells die? Lets find out!
