Great episode. Oh, Kermit is still my favorite podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
Good morning.
Listen, you have to just decide.
They are not taking the Black Smithsonian.
Resolve it in your spirit.
Many thanks to Michael Roth & Wesleyan University for speaking up - we need more of this from our leaders!
re: PubMed being DOGE'd / censored - don't see any evidence of this. You can't compare e.g EuroPMC searches with PubMed ones directly (saw @franknorman.bsky.social point this out on LinkedIn). By default EuroPMC searches lots of indexes: if you specify PubMed the numbers are much closer
This hits particularly close to home
In this Indiana diner, everyone has three questions: How's the breaded tenderloin? Is the quarry hiring? And when will the feds finally put an end to congestion pricing in Manhattan?
This was a great article breaking things down for people. Gold is doing a great job advocating for NU.
I am so angry
I needed this today. As we all try to navigate the seemingly endless barrage of change, this is a reminder that we all have agency to make a positive difference whether we're leaders or not. Love all the practical tips!

TROUBLE AT NU? Battered by potential financial cuts on both the state and federal levels, the University of Nebraska on Tuesday released a new study touting its value: a reported $6.4 billion economic impact last fiscal year.
From Cindy Gonzalez:
Grim days. I hold such affection for UNMC & understand their deep concerns
And for those who can, contact local tv news and newspapers with examples of impact.
Exactly.
Unless you are in a state that isnβt one of the 22β¦
Note: I am not advocating legal counsel, but pointing to an easily understood read on the current situation
The same thing is happening with scientific societies. Here is more information: www.hoganlovells.com/en/publicati...
Am I the only one who thinks we need better computer security controls if a group of bandits led by a public citizen can roll up & get all this data?

I love this podcast, but especially this episode. It reminds me of my love for Nebraska podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
Going to bed at 8 may become my new coping mechanism
I have no idea if it will help, but I do think shouting from the rooftops about the damage to science and research and cancer care and so on is a good idea. TV/podcast/etc people, I have now heard from quite a few people at NIH and NCI, and Iβm around if youβre interested.
I think some people hear βgrantsβ and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
βPausingβ grants means people donβt eat.
Um. Now is the time for all the great federal relations folks working for universities to call every staffer & donors call their representatives to ask WTH.
