The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government. https://t.co/5k5t9RYYC2

Finally, some strength.

Donald Trump isn't a "king" and we won't let him use New Yorkers as roadkill on his revenge tour.

We’ll see him in court.

About a month after Donald Trump took office as the 47th US president, almost all grant-review meetings remain suspended at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), preventing the world’s largest public funder of biomedical research from spending much of its US$47 billion annual budget.

My last post on this platform: for anyone that is terrified about the administration’s assault on science - come out on Wednesday evening!

@JezCarlton @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Thanks Jez, appreciate!

Rejuvenating the inner nuclear membrane? We show that nuclear autophagy proceeds through a lumenal vesicle intermediate and requires the dynamin-like 1 fission machinery. Congrats to @PhilipMannino1 and colleagues @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab

@LabVon @PhilipMannino1 @LuskingL @TJ_MeliaLab Thanks Julia!

[Jonathan Kagan @jkagan1]

This is a list of blockbuster drugs in 2024. Guess how many can trace their origins to NIH funded research?
All of them.

[Siyuan (Steven) Wang @SStevenWang]

Another big blow to the U.S. competitiveness in STEM. In comparison, the Chinese government lists biomed/biotech as one of few strategic areas and has steadily increased R&D funding year by year at a rate of ~10% per year even during economic slowdown.

I don’t have a plan, I have concepts of a plan.
