In light of policies to defund biomedical research, and with judicial hearings happening today, we hope to highlight the many ways biomedical research improves people's lives, and to convey how damaging the proposed cuts would be... not just for us researchers, but for everyone.
Patrick Mitchell (@psmitchej.bsky.social), Thornton Thompson and I wrote an OpEd, with support from 650+ biomedical researchers across Washington State (450+ at time of submission).

Thank you to all the NIH Staff who are standing up for all of us with this powerful statement: www.standupforscience.net/bethesda-dec...
Sad to hear of the passing of Dorothea von Moltke, who was a Princeton institution in her own right.

This footnote in Sassoon's resignation letter...
From a recent UW email:
"The [indirect] rates are based on federally audited cost studies. The audits show, time and again, that the total cost to the university is actually higher than the negotiated rate — the university is already subsidizing federal grants and contracts on the admin side."
Executive wants to frame the NIH indirects cut as $4B in savings.
But given that NIH returns $2.5 on every $1 investment, this would actually cost US economy a net $6 BILLION (per year!). Not to mention the human costs of wrecking education and research sectors and the communities they serve.
