Anyone at Harvard need a super well-trained undergrad next semester? Cell culture, molecular bio, microscopy and data analysis. Very careful and rigorous. Good lab citizen. Ready to jump in and learn/get some data! Has light course load, so plenty of time for research! Let me know of any leads!

When I was at NIH and shutdowns loomed, it was discovered that the administration was planning to shut down PubMed. The head of NCBI called the powers that be and pointed out that this would threaten patient safety
Who knows what will happen now
Just in case, remember Euruope-PMC
