Last month, undergrad Hannah Marr successfully defended her honors thesis and received the Wiley and Borgman Awards, which recognize the best undergraduate thesis in Biology and STEM at NYU. We wish her congratulations and best wishes for her future! #NYUCAS #NYUBiology

Senator Tuberville’s post on Mayor Mamdani is nothing less than blatant Islamophobic racism.

Not only should Tuberville apologize, but the Republican leadership should strongly condemn this kind of ugly behavior.

We must fight racism of all kinds, not condone it.

Diverse perspectives drive innovation in research. Today reminds us of the work still needed to close gender gaps in education, funding, and leadership in science. Let’s keep pushing for equity in STEM! #WomenInScience #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience

[United Nations @UN]

The world needs science, and science needs women. 👩‍🔬🧪

Yet, they remain under-represented and struggle to get recognition for their achievements.

I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

The Trump admin has cancelled the panels that approve NIH grants, & is banning scientists from communicating with the public, attending conferences, & hiring.

NIH is the world’s largest funder of biomedical research. This will halt discovery of lifesaving treatments. Devastating

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.

While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.

And they’re right.

Recent work from our postdoc Jennifer tackling how making the right number of different neuronal types is baked into development is now in press in Developmental Cell! Congrats!
