MDI Bio Lab’s Light #Microscopy Facility (LMF) went from unknown to Top 5 in the US, in just five years. In this article, LMF Director Frederic Bonnet discusses how if #Maine loses @microscopy_in_maine due to federal funding cuts, it loses a key hub for #biomedical research.

I took my 8-year old niece to the office with me on “Workplace Visit Day."

As we walked around the office, she got very upset and started crying, so l asked her what was wrong.

As my coworkers gathered round, she sobbed loudly, "Uncle Greg, where are all the clowns you said you worked with?!"

In case you missed it, the proposed NIH research grant caps would mean a 27% reduction in expected funding for the MDI Bio Lab. These funds are essential for supporting ongoing grants that drive our research, training, and outreach programs. Today we #StandUpForScience2025!

okay🧪🔬 nerds, I'm pissed. Emailed a CZI fellow, asking her if CZI will bend the knee. Her reply:

I've copied the important part below (note the signatory) Please retweet or whatever to amplify. You are naive if you're not taking action. I hate this.
