The CDC updated its vaccine page to claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is "not evidence-based" and studies were "ignored." This is an outrage. Decades of research have found no link. This isn't science, it's RFK Jr. using the CDC as propaganda. Children will die because of this.

Today I presented our new work at #Epidemics10 on understanding the drivers of influenza seasonality, with a particular focus on the role of indoor crowding and the built environment. It was so exciting to discuss it with so many experts in human flu! 😷 @bansallab.bsky.social

There is time to urge a change to the current #GRFP solicitation ( #NSF 25-547 ): reverse the eligibility restrictions and ensure applicants (including 2nd year PhD students) have a fair chance in the competition.
Feel free to sign and share this open petition:

NSF GRFP is out 2.5 months late w/key changes
1. 2nd year graduate students not eligible.

On February 26th, we officially launched the process to establish the Global Society for Infectious Disease Dynamics (GSIDD), and we could not be more energized by the response! We hosted two sessions...
What’s the most concerning thing we should be worried about and what signs should we look for in determining if another pandemic is imminent? Should we be looking at Canada’s detection apparatus or another countries? Where are the reputable sources we can trust that aren’t trumpian propaganda?
