Pitt to pause PhD admissions, following Vanderbilt and USC, because of uncertainty of NIH funding to academic universities.

Who will teach and train US scientists for pharma and biotech? Should we import them from countries that do?

#LongCOVID frequently includes cognitive symptoms. Noting the clinical similarities between “chemo-fog” and “COVID-fog”, we asked whether there are also neurobiological similarities, in collaboration with Akiko Iwasaki’s @VirusesImmunity lab @YaleMed. 🧵 https://t.co/HEzej9YjcH

The Wingspan Award is a meaningfully wonderful way to celebrate the life of a dedicated scientist who touched so many hearts and minds, and continue her mission of generosity @DrNadiaChaudhri

[Dr. Krista Byers-Heinlein @Krista_BH]

@DrNadiaChaudhri was a staunch supporter of students, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds. Donating to the Wingspan Award in her honor is a way to channel our grief into something meaningful https://t.co/RqaLDZwn8C 3/n
