New study by Alissa Trzeciak in The Perry Lab @mskcancercenter.bsky.social is out! The best way to explain the journey is if I compared it to the Director's Cut of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Let's just say, it wasn't submitted in March 2025.

Congrats Thomas!

Super pumped to see how Anya from the lab merges her unique areas of expertise! Highly recommend checking her lab out for training if you're interested in phagocytosis and tick biology.

The O’Neal Lab will study how ticks use their immune system to shape physiology and facilitate transmission of tickborne pathogens. I will be looking to hire later this year, stay tuned!

With all the chaos going on, I’m excited to share a bit of good news: this September I will be starting as an Assistant Professor in the Lyme & Tickborne Diseases Research and Education Institute at @johnshopkinsmmi.bsky.social

The Trump NIH is banning hires of new students and postdocs. This is devastating for NIH research and will result in a lost generation of researchers at the institution.

Heard from a applicant today: "A lot of people are banking their entire careers on the [NIH student programs]..."

Thanks to all of the NIHers and their friends who reached out to me. I am still here (DM me or Signal jeremymberg.78)

I still have a very incomplete picture but based on what I have been told, the damage to NIH and to many wonderful people who work(ed) there is/was impossible for me to imagine

NIH has cut billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately
The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease.
