🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Tina Smith (D-MN) NIH: $718M, 8K jobs.
Smith stands up for SSRIs and other antidepressants. RFK Jr is a threat to the nation’s mental health.
RFK Jr’s anecdotes are not science.
Saying “the science needs to be done” when there are reams of scientific studies available is peak RFK Jr.
