When it comes to supporting @realDonaldTrump, either urine or you're out #GoldenShowers

Trump's pick for budget director isn't sure the government should fund science https://t.co/i0sVOxIqea via @MotherJones

Many nights hoping to see the man in Bar St Laurent or outside his walkup in Mtl. RSVP Cohen.

@deheinrichs @paulgribble @jwoodgett 0for4. 2 grants all O/O+, ranked in all four cats? but 0-49%. Think I split ranks btw my own grants

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@andpru Excellent Andrew!

[Eric Arts @eja3]

0 for 5 on project scheme and foundation grants. Congrats to @andpru, Ravi, Stephan, and David on their Foundation success. Well deserved!

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@SteveKerfoot @andpru Just watched it live in my office. Love this tweet... https://t.co/yQ3UlOWyKe

1 meter!!! Obviously the stupid truck that ran me off the road never saw this video. https://t.co/JdzSsM2ZVI

[Cycle Simcoe @CycleSimcoe]

Please leave at least 1 metre when passing a cyclist or group of cyclists.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@jwoodgett @andpru Apparently this was a mistake.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@andpru What a bunch of idiots!!!!!! In the F1 competition CIHR accidentally gave the S2 ranks to the Univ. research offices

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@andpru I HATE you for telling me this. Going for bike ride and will try to forget you tweeted this!

@hwitteman #CIHRsummit @jwoodgett Inst. panels would combine the multiple old panels. Money allocated on historic funding levels per inst.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@hwitteman #CIHRsummit @jwoodgett For stage 2 suggestion, it would be good if F2F panels are organized by CIHR institutes and pillars.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@hwitteman #CIHRsummit The triage is OK for stage 1 if five reviewers are available. Otherwise high SDs creep in which is unfair.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@PatrickBurgon @CIHR_IRSC #CIHRsummit Misleading. Majority of NIH funds goes to contracts and CIHR vs NIH PI grant funds are more on par.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@hwitteman This is a great idea. Until a researcher attends a F2F, never fully appreciate rev process and what is needed for excellent grant

[Eric Arts @eja3]

@jwoodgett Quite a few US reviewers for PS and F. Many (>5) approached me and were dumbfounded by the horrible process. Embarrassing.

[Eric Arts @eja3]

#CIHRsummit Off my soap box. Thanks to @jwoodgett and my Western reps for their efforts. Happy to be back in Canada. Good luck Friday.
