For my latest @science.org story, I spoke with early career researchers who have been affected by the federal upheaval and are concerned about what it means for their future.

The assault on NIH is a test for how the national media covers the Trump admin: Trump is shutting down medical research!
That is easy to communicate. Will they treat it as a 5 alarm fire in a way that forces the government to respond, or will they downplay & caveat it?

-For every dollar we invest in NIH research, there is a $2.5 return.
-Research dollars help fund universities that employ non-academics. (1/)

Great article by @docwithbowtie.bsky.social on how we communicate with patients & their caregivers
Health misinformation had a key role in the election outcome. Pseudoscientific anti-vaxxers (including some doctors) may ascend to gov positions. I discuss how we counter that. @medpagetoday.bsky.social
