The Stover Lab had the great pleasure of attending the 2025 Fatherhood Conference at CCSU titled "The Power of Presence". Two days full of learning, connection, and inspiration—reminding us all that when fathers are truly present, families thrive.

For those who live elsewhere, this is the heart of downtown #LosAngeles. My friends are here. My union is here (sup @wgawest.bsky.social). My teenager is here. People are passing out pastries & singing & praying. All we want is for our neighbors not to be kidnapped off the streets.

Grant Park in downtown Los Angeles, full of union members peacefully singing and talking and carrying their signs.

🚨 A new rule would let career scientists like NSF/NIH program officers be replaced by political appointees

Already 14,000+ public comments, deadline is Friday

📣 Comments can be short. Courts consider them—and scientists with NSF/NIH experience are especially impactful
