We will lose a whole generation of early career scientists & the U.S. will lose its position as the world leader in biomedical research. https://open.substack.com/pub/insidemedicine/p/nih-caps-indirect-research-costs?utm_campaign=post08 Feb 2025 16:29 +0000at://did:plc:5ke3nxtkppcsf2aqvb22eu3e/app.bsky.feed.post/3lhojwqw63s26https://bsky.app/profile/lferrantemd.bsky.social/post/3lgjkorvp4s2hI’m still plugging away at grant reviews for an in-person NIH study section next month, with only a shred of hope that it will actually happen. This disruption to science has already been devastating for so many and it’s only been a few days. #MedSky #AcademicSky [contains quote post or other embedded content]24 Jan 2025 23:34 +0000at://did:plc:5ke3nxtkppcsf2aqvb22eu3e/app.bsky.feed.post/3lgjkorvp4s2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/lferrantemd.bsky.social/post/3lfgvufe2sk2cFinally joined @bsky.app (long overdue after avoiding social media for a few months)!
