Read about some of our faculty’s effort at Northwestern Medicine Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics in developing targeted therapeutics towards human disease! @NUFeinbergMed@NU_BMG_SQE https://t.co/hHkvhDWi1L
Yesterday I saw a presentation on the current state of lung cancer treatment that included this plot of FDA approved medications available and it's really phenomenal to see the progress that has been made in developing new treatments for lung cancer. https://t.co/gvgVAFHeZj
10,000 employees laid off from HHS today under RFK Jr.’s orders. Massive cuts to FDA safety inspections, CDC disease surveillance, and NIH research. These aren’t just jobs - this is a staggering blow to America’s public health infrastructure.
Here are some 🔥 takes regarding the recent announcement that NIH is slashing indirect cost rates from ~60% (at most insitutions) to 15%: reducing the overhead that NIH pays by 75%. This a massive $4 billion/year cut in funding to biomedical research centers in all states
I expected that a decrease in Indirects was coming but this is catastrophic - a reduction to 15% with no phase in ramp will devastate the US research enterprise

If you heard about a master's degree in "biomedical informatics", what do you think a student would learn in such a program, and what would it prepare them for?
Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect. All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.

We are hiring! Assistant Professor in statistical genetics. Also, hiring a postdoc. Reach out to hear more. Also, if you’ll be at #ASHG24#ASHG2024, we could meet. https://t.co/OLHRllzBQl
@RiyueSunnyBao We have an automated system that you put details into (and it also scrapes pubmed). Then you can export documents in a variety of formats. So there is help, but it's not a person.

Findings from Lurie Cancer Center investigators led by Hossein Ardehali, MD, PhD, suggest that reducing anabolism by reducing iron could be a potential treatment strategy for cancer, according to a study in @NatureCellBio: https://t.co/ghBMLDjjVL via @NUFeinbergMed#mTOR
