Next, @stephaniemlee.bsky.social draws on internal NIH data to tell the stories of a dozen scientists who find their grants in limbo.

With peer review on pause, "they’re navigating constantly changing, legally dubious, sporadically communicated whims, with no clear way forward," she writes.

Don’t know whether it’s appropriate to call this turtle, “beautiful”, but it sure seems apt to me - the shape of its head, the elongated neck, the eye profile…what a well-designed hunter! 😍

Look at this! The area circled in red is Wheeler Geologic Area. The entire access road and the entry/parking area (circled in yellow) for Wheeler is included in the auction. This would basically privatize access. Just blatant grift.

🤩 This photo represents an earlier, simpler era of when science thrived w/ perspectives looking out beyond "the horizon". While there were significant issues w/ societal bias, it tended not to be b/c of their intellect, their integrity and character, and the scientific curiosity of researchers.

Kölle Alaaf!

Es macht das Herz voll, zu sehen, wie die Deutschen und die Japaner die neuen Technologien fördern, eine kulturelle Verbindung teilen und ihre Länder der Welt zeigen!

ドイツと日本が新技術を宣伝し、文化的な絆を分かち合い、自国を世界にアピールするのを見ると、胸がいっぱいになる！

….cross-cultural awareness matters. Not a proper cuppa by any means 👋🏼

Awesome, congratulations, @zoewithoutawhy.bsky.social, on your dissertation defense - no small feat!! Your research sounds timely. I presume that there are hints on how to advocate for BAs - might there be some of your research publicly available to read, i.e. no paywalls? 😅 - on limited budget.
