Consider checking out Kolabtree for professional freelancers! I found a great statistician there for a research project I did.

I think they just want US genetics community input at the moment, but I'm not totally sure.

🚨Apparently GeneReviews is now being told to "prove their value" by the end of the week to the US government. They need letters of support sent to the Univ. of Washington editors: [email protected].🚨

NIH is cancelling grants, but it's not clear exactly what they're cancelling and why. Without this information, we can't respond.

I've started a Google Sheet to track grant cancellations.

Please add any canceled grants you know of and spread the word!

Hope your recovery goes quickly and you find the pillow throne empowering!

What a difference 24 hours makes. This update did not age well. Hopefully the fed funds freeze thaws so we can enjoy the things Congress already approved!

Called my senators and US Rep today about the wildly bad stop in HHS communications and meetings. Call or email your reps to let them know to resume operations. It's important to our national success and security.

Started off this morning emailing my Senators and Congressman about the NIH and the potential damage being done by unnecessary disruptions.

They need to hear from us loud and clear. Constituents matter to them as one of the primary purposes of a politician is to get re-elected (and its their job).
